Chapter I. 
NUMBEE AND DISTRIBUTION OF INHABITANTS. 



INTRODUCTION. 



This chapter presents the results of the Thirteenth 
Census with respect to the number of inhabitants, and 
their distribution over the territory of the United States . 

The tables sho-w the number of inhabitants enumer- 
ated in each state, county, and city, or other incorpo- 
rated place of 2,500 inhabitants or more. Comparative 
figures are given for the states and 50 principal cities 
back to the first census in 1790, and for the medium- 
sized cities — those having from 25,000 to 100,000 in- 
habitants — as far back as 1850, but for the counties 
and smaller cities the comparison is confined to 1910, 
1900, and 1890. 

In connection with the population of states, counties, 
and cities considerable attention is given to the in- 
crease of the population, especially for the last two 
decades. Tables are also presented showing for 1910 
the population which was taken as the basis of appor- 
tionment of Representatives, under the act of 1911, 
and showing the membership of the House of Repre- 
sentatives under each of the earlier apportionment acts. 
Statistics of area and density of population are given 
for the several states and territories, as well as state- 
ments describing the location of the center of popula- 
tion, at each census, 1790-1910, and of the median 
point and median lines at each census, 1880-1910. 

The chapter shows further the distribution of the 
population between urban and rural communities, 
together with the growth of population iu urbaa and 
rural territory. It also further distributes the urban 
population by classes of communities grouped accord- 
ing to size. In the case of cities of 100,000 or more 
inhabitants tables have been prepared covering, in 
addition to the population of the given city, the popu- 
lation residing within the suburban territory adjacent 
to it and lying within approximately 10 miles of its 
boundaries. 

At the date of the Thirteenth Census, April 15, 
1910, the jurisdiction of the United States embraced 
46 states, 2 territories (Arizona and New Mexico), 
and the District of Columbia, together with the 
following outlying possessions: Alaska, Hawaii, Porto 
Rico, the Philippine Islands, Guam, Samoa, and the 
Panama Canal Zone. The act providing for the Thir- 
teenth Census did not provide for an enumeration of 
the population of the Philippine Islands, Guam, Samoa, 
or the Panama Canal Zone. Since the enumeration 



Arizona and New Mexico have been admitted as states, 
and in the reports of the present census they are 
not generally distinguished from the states as terri- 
tories. 

In the Thirteenth Census reports the term "United 
States" when used without qualification embraces the 
48 states and the District of Columbia but not the 
outlying territories and possessions of the United 
States. Sometimes, however, the United States in 
this sense is referred to as the United States proper, 
or as continental United States. 

Returns of the population relate to the census day, 
April 15, 1910. All persons living on that date, in- 
cluding those who had subsequently died before the 
schedules covering their respective households were 
actually filled out, were enumerated, while children 
born after April 15, and immigrants arriving in the 
country after that date, were excluded. At previous 
censuses, beginning with that of 1830, the date of 
enumeration was June 1, and at the censuses of 1790, 
1800, 1810, and 1820, it was the first Monday in 
August. 

For the country as a whole, and for each state, 
county, city, or other specified area, the population 
enumerated is the resident population. The enum- 
erators, under the law, were instructed to enumerate 
persons at their "usual place of abode" — that is, 
where they may be said to "live" or "belong" or 
to have their "home." More specifically, the usual 
place of abode is defined as commonly the place where 
one "regularly sleeps." Hence persons were not in 
every instance counted in the place where they hap- 
pened to be found by the enumerators. Persons 
temporarily absent from the country or from their 
usual place of abode — temporarily away from home 
on a visit, or on business, or traveling for pleasure, or 
attendiag school or college, or sick ia a hospital — 
were enumerated at the place of their habitual 
residence, information regarding them having been 
obtained from relatives or other persons ; while visitors, 
lodgers, and in general individuals present temporarily 
within any given district at the time of the census, 
but having a usual place of abode elsewhere, were not 
returned by the enumerator of the district, unless it 
was practically certain that they would not be enumer- 
ated anywhere else.

POPULATION. 



POPUIATION OF THE UNITED STATES AND OF ITS OUTLYING POSSESSIONS. 



In 1910 the aggregate population of the United 
States with its outlying possessions exceeded 101,000,- 
000. The population given in Table 1 for the Philip- 
pine Islands is for 1903, in which year a census was 
taken by the Philippiae Commission; that included 
for the Panama Canal Zone is for 1912, ia which year 
a census was taken by the Department of Civil Admin- 
istration of the Isthmian Canal Commission; the fig- 



ures for Guam and Samoa are estimates. Although 
the data included for these four outlying possessions 
were not obtained by an enumeration in 1910, the 
aggregate given in the table may nevertheless be ac- 
cepted as a close approximation to the actual popula- 
tion of the United States with its possessions in that 
year. This aggregate is distributed by areas as shown 
in Table 1.

1 Population in 1903. 

The United States with its outlying possessions occu- 
pies approximately 6.7 per cent of the world's land 
area and embraces 5.9 per cent of its population.^ 

' The area and population of the United States may be compared 
with that of other countries and of the continental divisions in the 
following table, which gives separate figures for the 11 countries 
or empires whose population, each as estimated, Exceeds 25,000,000. 
Areas and populations, except as regards the United States, are taken 
from Hubner's Geographisch-statistische Tabellen (1911). Some- 
what different figures representing a different classification of Polar 
regions, inland seas, coastal waters, and spheres of influence might 
be given, taken from various sources, and in general the figures 
given must be regarded as being in the nature of estimates. Ap- 
proximately two-thirds (65.1 per cent) of the world's land area is 
occupied by these 11 countries, which embrace nearly seven-eighths 
(87.2 per cent) of the estimated aggregate population of the world.

Area of enumeration. — ^The area of enumeration in 
1910 embraced the 48 states and territories with the 
District of Columbia, and the following outlying pos- 
sessions: Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Kico. Persons 
in the military and naval service of the United States 
stationed abroad (that is, stationed beyond the limits 
of the United States proper and outside of the out- 
lying possessions included in the area of enumeration 
in 1910) were enumerated through co-operation with 
the War and the Navy Departments. This class of per- 
sons in 1910 numbered 55,608, as compared with 
91,219 La 1900, and comprised officers and enlisted 
men and civilian employees at military and naval sta- 
tions and on naval vessels abroad and, in addition, 
officers' servants and members of famUies of certain 
officers and enlisted men and of civilian employees. 
The total population enumerated was 93,402,151. Of 
this aggregate, 1,429,885 were enumerated in outlying 
possessions. At the census of 1900 the population 
enumerated aggregated 76,303,387, of which 308,812 
were enumerated in outlying possessions; but to this 
may be added the population of Porto Rico (953,243) 
as enumerated in 1899, giving a grand total of 77,256,- 
630 for the same territory as that covered by the enu- 
meration of 1910. 

Table 2 gives, for the areas enumerated in 1910, the 
aggregate population in 1910 and in 1900. 

The census of 1890 was the first at which a complete 
enumeration was made of the area now comprised 
within the boundaries of the 48 states. In 1880 no 
enumeration was made of persons living in Indian Ter- 
ritory and on Indian reservations, and at earlier cen- 
suses large tracts of unorganized and sparsely settled

population of Alaska was included in the census of the 
United States for the first time in 1880 and that of 
Hawaii in 1900. The population of Porto Rico was 



enumerated by a special census taken under the direc- 
tion of the War Department in 1899 but was first 
included in the general census of the United States in 
1910.

United States, exclusive of outlying possessions. — 

Excluding the population of outlying possessions 
and of the mUitary and naval service abroad, the pop- 
ulation of the United States ia 1910 was 91,972,266.^ 
The population of this area in 1900 was 75,994,575, 
the mcrease for the decade 1900-1910 bemg 15,977,691. 
This increase exceeds that for any other decade, being 
greater by nearly 3,000,000 than the increase in the 
decade 1890-1900, and greater by more than 2,800,000 
than the increase iri the half century 1790-1840. The 
percentage increase in the last decade, 21, exceeds 
slightly the increase of the decade immediately pre- 
ceding, 20.7, but is below that of any earlier decade. 
The growth of population since 1790 is shown in 
Table 3, which gives the population at each census 
and the increase during each decade for the country 
as a whole, exclusive of noncontiguous territory. A 
diagramj page 35, shows the increase in population of 
the United States and principal countries of Europe, 
from 1800 to 1910. 

' The area added at each census to the area of enumeration within 

the boundaries of the present states may be briefly indicated as 

follows: 

1800. — The five states entirely within the Northwest Territory of 
1790 — Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin — 
together with territory west of Geoi'gia (now embraced within 
the. boundaries of Alabama and Mississippi). Practically all 
of this territory was within the limits of the United States in 
1790, but was not enumerated at the first census. 

1810. — Louisiana, Arkansas, and Missouri. The rest of the Louisi- 
ana Purchase (1803) was not enumerated in 1810. 

1820. — No change. Florida was purchased in 1819, but was not 
enumerated in 1820. 

18S0.— Florida. 

1840. — Minnesota and Iowa. 

18S0. — Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Washington, Oregon, 
and California. 

i860. — North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Montana, 
Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, and Nevada. The Gadsden Pur- 
chase (1853) was added at this census, but its population can 
not be determined separately. 

7S70.— No change. 

1880.— Vio change. 

1890. — Indian Territory, Oklahoma, and Indian reservations. 

1900. — No change. .» 

1910.— 'No change. 
It should be noted, however, that the territories added at each 

census did not always at the time have the same boundaries and 

areas as states of the same name have at the present time. 



Since the Twelfth Census was taken as of June 1, 
1900, and the Thirteenth as of April 15, 1910, the inter- 
censal period was 9 years, lOJ months. It may be 
assumed that the population increase from April 15, 
1910, to June 1, the end of the full decennial period, 
was not less than 200,000, a number sufficient to raise 
the decennial rate from 21 to 21.3 per cent. 

Some explanation is required of the revised per- 
centages given in the last column of the table for the 

^ The distribution by countries of the population of the two 
American continents is shown in the following table. The flgurea 
given are generally from recent census reports, or from the IJuUetin 
of the Pan American Union, but in a few instances are taken from 
other sources and in such cases are in the nature of estimates. They 
relate to the population in 1910-1911, or at that date approximately .

two decades 1860-1870 and 1870-1880. The per- 
centages of increase in these decades for the country 
as a whole were materially affected by the small 
increase recorded for the Southern states at the census 
of 1870. The evidence is conclusive, however, that 
the enumeration of 1870 was incomplete in those 
states, and that their population was in consequence 
understated. The census returns, therefore, give for 
the decade 1860-1870 a rate of increase which is un- 
doubtedly below, and for the decade 1870-1880 one 
which is undoubtedly above, the true rate. An esti- 
mate of the true population of the country in 1870 was 



made in the census report of 1890 (Population, Part I, 
pp. xi, xii, and xvi). In this report the number of 
omissions in the census of 1870 is estimated to have 
exceeded 1,200,000, and the true population of the 
country in 1870 is accordingly estimated to have been 
39,818,449 instead of 38,558,371, the number derived 
from the 1870 returns. On the basis of this revised 
population total, the increase for the decade 1860-1870 
becomes 8,375,128, or 26.6 per cent (instead of 
7,115,050, or 22.6 per cent), and that for the succeed- 
ing decade 10,337,334, or 26 per cent (instead of 
11,597,412, or 30.1 per cent).

Indians and other persons in Indian Territory and 
on Indian reservations were, as noted above, enu- 
merated for the first time in 1890. Consequently the 
whole population of these areas in 1890 — that is, 
325,464, and not simply the excess of the 1890 over 
the 1880 population (which can not be determined) — 
enters into the aggregate population increase given in 
Table 3 for the decade 1880-1890. Since this increase 
is therefore partly attributable to extension of the area 
of enumeration in 1890, it does not accurately indicate 
growth of population within the area enumerated in 
either 1880 or 1890. The increase within the area 
enumerated in 1880 may be determined by eliminating 
from the 1890 population these 325,464 Indians and 
other persons. The population in 1890 of the area 
enumerated in 1880 within the states and territories 
was 62,622,250, which gives an increase for the decade 
1880-1890, within this area, of 12,466,467, or 24.9 per 
cent. This is perhaps a more correct statement of the 
increase than that which, taking no account of the 
extension of the area of enumeration, derives directly 
from the returns the increase of 12,791,931, or 25.5 per 
cent, shown in Table 3 (also in Table 11). 

For each of the earlier decades also, in which the 
area enumerated has been extended, the increase may 
be similarly determined by excluding the population of 
the areas newly added. The results of such a calcu- 
lation are shown in Table 4. While the rates so com- 
puted do not differ very materially from those given in 



the general table, the modifications result in making the 
percentage increases of the first seven decades more 
nearly uniform. The exceptionally high rates shown 
in Table 3 for the decades ending, respectively, in 1800, 
1810, 1850, and 1860 are largely accounted for by 
extensions of the area of enumeration. Since, how- 
ever, the population withia these added areas in each 
given decade has undoubtedly grown to a greater or 
less extent by net immigration from other sections of 
the country — in which obviously the population growth 
has been to an equal extent lessened — the rate obtained 
by excluding the population of these areas is somewhat 
below, as the unadjusted rate of Table 3 is somewhat 
above, the true rate for the country as a whole. The 
error arises, in one case, from including in the increase 
the population at the beginning of the decade of the 
areas added during the decade; in the other case, it 
arises from excluding a certain number of migrants 
from the population at the end of the decade. In 
Table 4 the estimated population of 1870 has been used 
in reckoning the increases for the decades ending in 
1870 and 1880. To complete the table, increases have 
been included from Table 3 for decades in which there 
has been no change in the area of enumeration. 

Since it includes a net gain by immigration, the 
growth of the aggregate population from census to 
census exceeds the natural increase, or excess of births 
over deaths. Some analysis of the increase in the 
enumerated population with reference to the native 



NUMBER AND DISTRIBUTION OF INHABITANTS.

and the foreign-born population elements is under- 
taken in subsequent sections of this Report, and for 
certain of these elements the increase shown is approx- 
imately a natural increase.

Summarizing, it may be noted that diu-ing each of 
the seven decades, 1790-1860, the population in- 
creased with remarkable uniformity by approximately 
one-third, during each of the next three decades, 
1860-1890, by approximately one-fourth, and during 
each of the two decades following, 1890-1910, by ap- 
proximately one-fifth. The lowering of the decennial 
rate, therefore, has not been by a gradual decline from 
decade to decade, but has been by two abrupt breaks 
downward, each rate of growth being maintained for 
more than one decade. Even in those decades which 
show the most considerable decline in the percentage 
of increase, however, as in every other decade, the 
absolute increase has exceeded that of the decade pre- 
ceding, the greatest growth of the absolute increase 
being that shown in 1910. To the large immigration 
of recent years may be attributed the slight increase in 
the rate for the last decade over that for the decade 
immediately preceding. 



POPULATION BY DIVISIONS AND STATES. 



Distribntion of the population and rank of states and 
divisions. — The population of each state and territory 
and its rank according to population at each Federal 
census, from 1790 to 1910, are given in Table 10 
(pp. 30 and 31), which includes also the aggregate pop- 
ulation and rank at each' census of the areas consti- 
tuting the nine geographic divisions in which the 
states are grouped in the 1910 census tabulations. 
The table includes data for Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto 
Rico. 

At each of the last ten censuses, beguming with that 
of 1820, New York has ranked first among the states 
in population. In 1910 its population of 9,113,614 was 
approximately one-tenth of the total population of 
the country. In 1790 it was the fifth most populous 
state; in 1800, the third; and in 1810, the second. 
Pennsylvania, with a population in 1910 of 7,665,111, 
has ranked second at each census beginning with that 
of 1880; it ranked second also in 1790 and in 1800, but 
third in 1810 and in 1820. Illinois (population in 
1910, 5,638,591) and Ohio (population in 1910, 
4,767,121) have ranked third and fourth, respectively, 
at each of the last three censuses. In the last decade 
Texas rose from the sixth to the fifth, and Massachu- 
setts from the seventh to the sixth position in popula- 
tion rank. Missouri, the fifth state in 1900, was sev- 
enth in 1910; Michigan rose from the ninth to the 
eighth place; and Indiana dropped from the eighth to 
the ninth place. These nine states were therefore, in 
1910 as in 1890, the nine most populous states, the four 
most populous of them having maintained their rank 
unchanged since 1890. Seven of them, with an aggre- 
gate population in 1910 of 36,061,902, lie north of the 
Ohio River and extend in an unbroken band east 
from the Mississippi to the Atlantic seaboard. Of the 
ten least populous states, seven are located in the 
Mountain division, Nevada's population in 1910 
(81,875) being less than that of any other state. 



Nearly one-fifth of the total population of the 
country in 1790 was returned from Virginia, whose 
population at this date was 747,610. Virginia main- 
tained its rank as the most populous of the states at 
the census of 1800 and at that of 1810. 

In 1790 Maine was a district of Massachusetts, 
and Vermont had not been admitted to the Union. 
The population of these two states is, however, shown 
separately for 1790. Virginia extended over the area 
now constituting Kentucky and West Virginia, while 
the territory of Georgia extended west to the Missis- 
sippi River. The area now embraced within the 
boundaries of Tennessee was then known as the 
"territory south of the river Ohio," while the area 
now constituting the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, 
Michigan, Wisconsin, and a part of Minnesota was in 
1790 known as the "territory northwest of the river 
Ohio. " Florida and a strip along the southern border 
of what was then Georgia, together with the region 
west of the Mississippi River, were held by Spain. 

Although the territory of the United States, at the 
date of the First Census — the first Monday in August, 
1790 — embraced the area lying between the Atlantic 
seaboard and the Mississippi River, not over 5 per 
cent of the population lived west of the Appalachian 
Mountains, the geographic distribution of the popu- 
lation giving an average depth of settlement or dis- 
tance of habitation from the coast of 255 miles. Prac- 
tically the total population returned in 1790, number- 
ing 3,929,214, with the exception of 109,368 persons 
credited to the region which is now Kentucky and 
Tennessee, lived within the area now constituting the 
three Atlantic Seaboard divisions. 

The geographic distribution of the population by 
divisions and sections, at each of the four censuses 
1850, 1890, 1900, and 1910, is shown by percentages 
in Table 5, which gives also the population in 1910 of 
each section and division. In this table, as in other 



26 



POPULATION. 



tables where data are presented by sections, the 
North embraces the 21 states which — grouped by 
geographic divisions — constitute the New England, 
Middle Atlantic, East North Central, and West North 
Central divisions; the South embraces the 16 states 
and the District of Columbia, which constitute the 
South Atlantic, East South Central, and West South 
Central divisions ; and the West embraces the 1 1 states 
of the two far western divisions, namely, the Mountaui 
and the Pacific. In 1910, 55,757,115, or 60.6 per cent, 
of the total population of the country were ia the 
North; 29,389,330, or 32 per cent, were m the South; 
and 6,825,821, or 7.4 per cent, were in the West. 

Data for 1850 are included in Table 5 as repre- 
senting conditions immediately after the last con- 
siderable accession to the area now constituting the 
territory of the states. As stated above, a very large 
area lying west of the Mississippi Kiver was unenu- 
merated at the census of 1850 — the extent of the area 
unenumerated at that census being in fact approxi- 
mately as great as the extent of the area enumerated. 
Since this unenumerated area was, however, practi- 
cally all unsettled territory, its scanty population if 
taken into account could not materially affect the 
percentages shown below. In 1910, 70.4 per cent of 
the population was returned from states lying east, 
and 29.6 per cent trom states lying west of the Missis- 
sippi River. In 1850 the states east of the Mississippi 
reported 91.4 per cent of the population. The pro- 
portion returned from the Eocky Mountain and 
Pacific Coast regions has increased since 1850 from 
0.8 to 7.4 per cent. The North had substantially the 
same proportion of the total population ia 1910 as in 
1850, but the South had a smaller proportion in the 
later year than in the earlier. 

The Middle Atlantic division, which ranked second 
among the nine geographic divisions in 1900, ranked 
first in 1910, the East North Central division ranking 
second.

rank given in Table 6 for 1900 is based upon the population of Indian Territory and 
Oklahoma combined. 

The following statement based upon Table 6 shows 
that east of the Mississippi River a majority of the 
states lost in rank, while west of the Mississippi River 
only four states — Iowa, Missouri, Louisiana, and 
Nebraska — ^lost in rank in the decade 1900-1910.

2 Includes population of Indian Territory for 1900 and 1890. 

High percentage increases between 1900 and 1910 
in the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast states indi- 
cate a continuation since 1900 of the migration west- 
ward which has characterized other decades. For 
certain states located in other sections of the country, 
however, a growth due to migration is indicated by 
their high percentage increases; and the wide range 
of variation from state to state in the rates of popu- 
lation growth indicates in general a migratory move- 
ment of population the country over, which can not 
be completely summarized as a westward drift. 

It is true that all of the eleven states in which 
the population increase during the last decade 
exceeded 50 per cent lie in the region west of the 
Mississippi River, six of them being located in the 



Mountain division. Of the three states in which the 
population has more than doubled, one — Washington, 
with an increase of 120.4 per cent — is located in the 
Pacific division; one — Oklahoma, with an increase of 
109.7 per cent — is in the West South Central division; 
and one — Idaho, with an increase of 101.3 per cent — 
is in the Mountain division. 

If, however, the geographical distribution of the 
states in which the percentage increase of population 
during the last decade considerably exceeded the 
average for the country as a whole, and if those in 
which it was materially below that average be noted, 
the state areas with relatively high and those with 
relatively low rates are found to be widely scattered 
and interspersed. Of the nine states, for example, in 
which the increase was from 25 to 50 per cent, one is 
in New England, two are in the Middle Atlantic divi- 
sion, one is in the West North Central, two are in the 
South Atlantic, one is m the West South Central, and 
two are in the Mountain. Of the 16 states in which 
the increase did not exceed 15 per cent, three are in 
New England, three are in the East North Central 
division, four — including one in which the population 
has slightly decreased — are in the West North Central, 
four are in the South Atlantic, and two are in the East 
South Central. 

Certain of the Eastern states in which the percent- 
ages of increase were high, notably New Jersey and 
New York, have received large accessions of popula- 
tion by foreign immigration; and in general it may be 
noted, as wiU be shown by subsequent chapters, that 
the population growth of the North, during the last 
decade as in earlier periods, to a much greater degree 
than that of the South, has been due to immigration 
from foreign countries. In the Northern states gen- 
erally, moreover, to a greater degree than in the 
Southern, the percentages of population growth have 
been affected by that migratory shifting of popula- 
tion over extensive but undefined areas, wliich has 
accompanied the development of urban industrial 
communities. Finally, as regards certain states, the 
relatively large extent, within their boundaries, of 
areas sparsely populated and available for settlement 
has attracted population during the decade. 

Natural increase, foreign immigration, industrial 
development, westward drift, and agricultural devel- 
opment within certain regions of the West and South 
may be mentioned as the chief causes of variations in 
the rates of population growth by states. As a result 
of the combination of these influences, the increase in 
certain states and divisions greatly exceeds, in others 
falls short of, the natural growth by excess of births 
over deaths. The more detailed presentations of the 
census returns — those relating to the foreign born, the 
growth of urban communities, state of birth, etc. — 
indicate, so far as data are available, for each state 
and division, the extent to which its population growth 
has been affected by these influences severally con- 
sidered.

POPULATION. 



ETen for states within the same division no approxi- 
mation to uniform rates of increase is found. The 
increaseof 17.2 per cent for New England covers three 
states with increases of 6.9, 4.6, and 3.6 per cent, 
respectively, and three with 20, 26.6, and 22.7 per 
cent. Although the increase of 25 per cent for the 
three Middle Atlantic states is close to the rate for 
New York state— 25.4 per cent — it covers an increase 
of 34.7 per cent in New Jersey and of 21.6 per cent in 
Pennsylvania. The rate of 14.2 per cent for the East 
North Central division covers an increase of 7.3 per 
cent in Indiana and of 16.9 per cent in Illinois. In 
the West North Central division the increase of 12.5 
per cent covers a decrease of 0.3 per cent in one state, 
and an increase of 80.8 per cent in another, the inter- 
mediate rates being 6, 11.8, 15, 18.5, and 45.4. In the 
South Atlantic states a divisional increase of 16.8 
per cent covers an increase of 9 per cent in Maryland 
and of 42.4 per cent in Florida; in the East South 
Central division, imder a general rate of 11.4 per cent, 
the four states range from 6.6 to 16.9 per cent; in the 
West South Central a rate of 34.5 per cent covers the 
four rates, 20, 19.9, 109.7, and 27.8 per cent; in the 
Mountain division a rate of 57.3 per cent covers a 
range from 34.9 to 101.3 per cent; and in the Pacific 
division a rate of 73.5 per cent covers the three rates 
60.1, 62.7, and 120.4 per cent. In four divisions — 
the Middle Atlantic, West South Central, Mountain, 
and Pacific — the percentage of increase for each of the 
last two decades has exceeded that for the country as 
a whole, and excepting one — the West South Central — 
these divisions with high percentage increases for the 
decade 1890-1900 show still higher rates for the decade 
1900-1910, while the divisions with relatively low 
rates in the earlier decade have grown more slowly 
since 1900. 

In considering the decennial increase in the popula- 
tion of divisions and states prior to 1890, allowance 
should be made in some mstances for differences in 
the area of enumeration at the several censuses, as 
already explained for the United States as a whole, on 
page 22. This is the case particularly with respect to 
the decade 1880-1890, because of the inclusion in 1890 
of the population of Indian Territory and Indian 
reservations specially enumerated at that census. 
The population of the equivalent areas in 1880 was not 
ascertained. For the divisions and states afi'ected, 
somewhat different percentages would be obtained if 
the population specially enumerated in 1890 were 
excluded in figuring the decennial increase. 

The absolute increase of population during the 
decade ending in 1910 exceeded that of any earher 
decennial period in each of the three Atlantic Sea- 
board divisions, as also in the West South Central, the 
Mountain, and the Pacific divisions. While the 10 
years 1900 to 1910 has therefore been for these divi- 
sions the decade of their maximum population in- 
crease, of no one of the nine geographic divisions is it 



true, as it is of the country as a whole, that the popu- 
lation growth during each decade has exceeded that 
during the decade preceding. This would be true 
of the Mountain division except that the increase 
for this division from 1880 to 1890 (560,816) exceeded 
that from 1890 to 1900 (460,722). In the Middle 
Atlantic division the only decades for which the 
amount of increase falls below that for the decade 
precedmg are 1860-1860 and 1860-1870. In the 
West North Central division such decades are 1890- 
1900 and 1900-1910; and in the Pacific division 
1860-1870 and 1890-1900. In the West North Central 
division the population growth of the decade 1880- 
1890 (2,774,669) was more than twice as great as that 
of tiie decade ending in 1910 (1,290,498), and while 
the increase shown for this division in 1910 exceeded 
slightly that of the decade 1850-1860 (1,289,497), 
it was less than that of any one of the four decades fol- 
lowing. The population growth of the East North 
Central division was greatest during the decade 1890- 
1900 (2,507,276), the increase of the last decade 
(2,265,040) being exceeded also by that of the decades 
1850-1860 (2,403,624) and 1880-1890 (2,271,637). 
The greatest increase shown for the East South Central 
division was for the 10 years from 1870 to 1880 
(1,180,706), the second greatest that for the decade 
ending in 1900 (1,118,603), and the third greatest 
that for the decade ending m 1910 (862,144). 

The population of one state, Iowa, decreased during 
the decade 1900-1910, the decrease of 7,082, or 0.3 
per cent (from 2,231,853 to 2,224,771), being shght. 
Iowa's greatest decennial increase is that shown in 
1870 (519,107); in the three decades 1850 to 1880, 
however, its population rose from 192,214 to 1,624,615. 
The increase in the 10 years 1880 to 1890 outside of 
Indian reservations was 287,682 and in the following 
10 years, 319,556. The 1910 returns indicate a loss 
by net emigration out of the state during the decade, 
which exceeds the gain by excess of births over deaths. 
These emigrants have undoubtedly contributed to 
the rapid population increase of newly developed 
agricultural regions in other sections of the country 
and in Canada. 

The three New England states with low percentage 
increases for the last decade, namely, Maine (6.9), 
New Hampshire (4.6), and Vermont (3.6), had in 1910 
an aggregate population of 1,528,899. In 1850 these 
states had an aggregate population of 1,215,265, the 
increase in the six decades 1850-1910 amounting to 
313,634, or 25.8 per cent. Maine's population growth 
during the last decade (47,905), however, exceeded 
that of any other decade since 1850, and the increase 
shown for Vermont in 1910 (12,315) exceeded the 
increases shown for this state at the censuses of 1900, 
1890, and 1880. 

The per cent distribution of the increase in the 
two decades 1890-1900 and 1900-1910, and for the 
sixty-year period 1850-1910, is shown by sections

Approximately one-fourth (24.2 per cent) of the 
increase since 1900 in the country as a whole has been 
in the Middle Atlantic division. The four northern 
divisions, which contained more than three-fifths 
(62.3 per cent) of the total population in 1900, con- 
tributed 52.4 per cent of the increase since 1900; the 
three southern divisions, which contained very nearly 
one-third (32.3 per cent) of the population in 1900, 
contributed 30.5 per cent of the increase, and the two 
western divisions, which contained about one- 
twentieth (5.4 per cent) that of the population in 1900, 
contributed 17.1 per cent of the increase. Three-fifths 



of the total increase was in the region east, and two- 
fifths in the region west of the Mississippi. 

Fifteen states '■ have taken state censuses since 1900, 
13 of them in the year 1905, Michigan in 1904, and 
Oklahoma in 1908. The provisions of law under 
which these state censuses are taken, and the prac- 
tices followed in making the enumeration, vary from 
state to state. The returns are in certain cases made 
up by local assessors, incidentally to the performance 
of other duties, and are admittedly more or less in- 
complete or inaccurate. In other states, however, 
enumerators are appointed, and the census report is 
detailed, accurate, and of great value. Several of the 
states — for example, Minnesota, New Jersey, New 
York, and Wisconsin — took their 1905 census as of 
June 1. In other states the date of enumeration was 
AprU 1, May 1, or July 1, although the returns do not 
in every case clearly pertain to any single day. Al- 
though for these 15 states the increase may be deter- 
mined for periods which are approximately quinquen- 
nial, going back in the case of certain states to 1850 
or even an earlier date, the state censuses have in some 
cases been taken at intervals which are more or less 
irregular. The territorial law of Oklahoma, for ex- 
ample, provided for a biennial census, and under this 
provision a census was taken in 1908 — the population 
being returned as 1,445,261 — following the Federal 
enumeration taken on occasion of the admission of the 
territory as a state in 1907, when the population was 
returned as 1,414,177.

POPULATION. 



APPORTIONMENT OF REPRESENTATION. 



Population for apportionment purposes: 1910. — 

Table 12 gives, for 1910, the population of each state 
exclusive of Indians not taxed, who, according to the 
Constitution, are not to be included in the population 
forming the basis of the apportionment of representa- 
tives among the several states. The population of 
Arizona and New Mexico is not included in the main 



table but is added as an appendix. These states were 
still territories when the appro tionment act of 1911 
was passed, though provision for their representation 
was made in the act. Now that they have been ad- 
mitted as states the total apportionment population 
of the states (that is, exclusive of Indians not taxed 
and the District of Columbia) is 91,569,325.

Number of representatives under each apportion- 
ment. — As the count of population is made primarily 
for the purpose of fixing the membership of the House 
of Representatives, under the provisions of section 
2 of Article I of the Constitution, as modified by 
section 2 of Article XIV of the Amendments, a state- 
ment is given in Table 13 of the number of representa- 
tives assigned to each of the states by the Constitution 
in 1789 and by the several apportionment acts from 
the formation of the Government to the present time. 

The membership of the House of Representatives 
was origiaally fixed at 65, under the provisions of 
section 2 of Article I of the Constitution. 

The apportionments of representatives in Congress 
under the first six censuses — 1790 to 1840, inclusive — 
were. made by Congress, each by a separate act. 

The law for taking the census of 1850 (act of May 
23, 1850, 9 Stat. L., 428), which was intended to be 
permanent, presented a rule of apportionment, fixed 
the number of members of the House at 233, and 



directed the Secretary of the Interior thereafter to 
make the apportionment. The apportionment under 
the census of 1860 also was made under this law, but 
Congress, on March 4, 1862, fixed the total number of 
members at 241, and the Secretary of the Interior 
apportioned the new quotas to the states. 

The apportionments based on the census of 1870 
and subsequent censuses were made by Congress, 
each by a separate act; hence it may be assumed that 
the power conferred on the Secretary of the Interior 
by the act of May 23, 1850, was repealed by implication. 

Although the successive reapportionments, except 
that based upon the census of 1840, have each, inci- 
dentally to apportionment of representation, increased 
the membership of the House — from 65 in 1789 to 435 
under the act of 1911 — the increase in the number of 
representatives has been relatively, much less rapid 
than the growth of population. This is shown by the 
increasing ratio of number of inhabitants to number 
of representatives.

The original apportionment of 1789 was based upon 
a ratio of 30,000 inhabitants to 1 representative. Un- 
der the act of 1911 the ratio is 211,877 to 1. Itshould 
be explained that this number, 211,877, is not the quo- 
tient obtained by dividing the apportionment popula- 
tion by the number of representatives, but is a 
number somewhat arbitrarily determiaed upon as a

divisor in apportioning representatives in 1911. It 
may be briefly described as the mean of the numbers 
which, had they been used as divisors, would each 
under the rule of apportionment adopted have given 
an apportionment identical with that actually made.^ 
The actual ratio of representation — that is, the 
quotient obtained by dividing the apportionment 
population of 1910 by the number of representatives 
imder the act of 1911 — is for the coimtry as a whole 
210,504. By states the ratio varies from 80,293 in 
Nevada to 228,027 in Washington, as shown in Table 
15. Nevada and three other states, Delaware, Wy- 
oming, and Arizona, whose populations were less than 
the number which would have entitled them to one 
representative by apportionment, were each given 
one imder the constitutional provision that each state 
shall have at least one representative in the House. 

^ For a detailed account of the method of apportionment in 1911 
and at earlier dates see the report on "Apportionment of Repre- 
sentatives," from the House Committee on the Census. Report 
No. 12, Apr. 25, 1911.

It is obvious from the above table that the repre- 
sentation of the states is not exactly proportional to 



their population. This results necessarily from the 
fact that the population of no state is exactly divisible 
by the ratio of representation, and also from the fact 
noted before that each state, whateverdts population, 
is under the Constitution entitled to at least one 
representative. 

Under the apportionment of 1789 the entire mem- 
bership of the House came from the Atlantic Sea- 
board states and the same was true of the apportion- 
ment of 1790, except that under the act based on the 
census of that year two representatives were assigned 
to Kentucky and, after apportionment, one to Tennes- 
see. Under the apportionment of 1810 the region 
west of the Mississippi secured its first representative — 
the member from Louisiana — while under that of 1911 
the trans-Mississippi members number 131. In Table 
16 the House membership under the apportionment 
of 1790, and under each apportionment from that 
based on the census of 1850 to that based on the 
census of 1910, is distributed by geographic divi- 
sions and sections of the country, with corresponding 
percentages.

AEEA AUD DENSITY OF POPULATION. 



ABE A. 
United States as a whole. — The gross area, land and 
water, of the territory under the jurisdiction of the 
United States at the Thirteenth Census was 3,743,306 
square miles. The outlying territories had an area of 
716,517 square miles, and constituted 19.1 per cent, or. 
approximately one-fifth, of the aggregate area. The 
area in 1790 was 892,135 square mUes, or somewhat 
less than one-fourth of the present area, and embraced 
substantially all the territory lyiug between the 
Atlantic Ocean and the Mississippi River excepting 
Florida. This original area, and the areas of successive 
accessions of territory from 1790 to 1910, are shown in 
Table 17. In 1803 the area of the country was nearly 
doubled by the Louisiana Purchase. Three accessions 
of territory during the decade 1840-1850, aggregating 
1,204,896 square mdles, iacreased the area of the 
country from 1,792,223 to 2,997,119 square miles. 
These three accessions constitute 39.8 per cent, or 
approximately two-fifths, of the present area of the 
country, exclusive of noncontiguous territory.

1 Does not include the water surface of the oceans, the Gulf of Mexico, or the 
Great Lakes, lying within the jurisdiction of the United States. 

Divisions and states.— The total land area of the 
United States and of each state and territory at the 
date of each census from 1790 to 1910, inclusive, is 
given in Table 21 on page 40. This table refers to 
the land area exclusively. For 1910, the gross area 
and the land and water area, respectively, of the 
states, ranked according to gross area, are given in 
Table 19. 

Seven states, each of which embraces within its 
limits over 100,000 square miles of territory and 
all lying west of the Mississippi Kiver, have an 
aggregate gross area of 1,022,418 square miles, or 
approximately one-third of the total area of the 
United States. Texas, the largest of these, with 
265,896 square miles of land and water, has an area 
more than four times that of the New England 
states, and more than 213 times that of Rhode Island, 
the smallest state. California, the next largest 
state, with an extent of territory about three-fifths 
as great as that of Texas, nearly equals in area the 
New England and Middle Atlantic states com- 
bined. The aggregate area of these two states exceeds 
that of the Atlantic Seaboard states from Maine to 
Florida. The 5 remaining states with areas exceeding 
100,000 square miles are in the Mountain division, ancl 
one other state in this division, Wyoming, falls just 
below the limit indicated. Twenty-one states, 14 of 
which are located west of the Mississippi River, have 
areas ranging from 50,000 to 100,000 square miles, and 
20 states have areas of less than 50,000 square miles. 
The 22 states west of the Mississippi River have an 
average area of 97,514 square miles; the 26 states east 
of that river an average of 33,900, but little more than 
one-third that of the states west of the Mississippi.

POPULATION PER SQtTABE MILE. 

United States as a whole. — Table 22 shows, for the 
United States, the total population, land area in square 
mUes, and population per square mile of land area, at 
each census, 1790-1910; the diagram which follows 
also shows the density of population at each census. 

The decrease shown in the average number of in- 
habitants per square mile at the censuses of 1810 and 
1850 was due ui each case to large accessions of thinly 
populated territory during the preceding decade. At 
every other census from 1790 to 1910, the number of 
inhabitants per square mile had increased, from 4.5 
in 1790 to 30.9 in 1910.

Divisions and states. — The population per square 
mile in the United States and in each state and terri- 
tory at each census from 1790 to 1910, inclusive, is 
given in Table 26, page 44, while a diagram in the next 
column shows the relative density for the last two 
decades only. 

The relative density of population of each state of 
the United States in 1910 and 1900, is indicated by 
the maps on page 43, while Table 23 shows, for each 
geographic division and state, the population and land 
area in 1910 and the population per square mile at 
each of the last three censuses. The distribution of 




the population of the United States in 1910 is also 
indicated by a map following page 124, in which, in 
computing density of population the county has been 
taken as the unit and its total population divided by 
the land area in square miles. 

In the order of density of population, as shown by 
Table 23, the geographic divisions ranked as follows in 
1910: Middle Atlantic, 193.2 inhabitants per square 
mile; New England, 105.7; East North Central, 74.3; 
East South Central, 46.8; South Atlantic, 45.3; West 
North Central, 22.S; West South Central, 20.4;

It will be noted that, while increases in density of 
population during the last two decades have been 
marked generally in the sparsely populated states of 
the West, such increases have been no less marked 
in some of the more populous states of the East, as, 
for example, in the Middle Atlantic and in the three 
most southern New England states.

1 Includes population of Indian Territory for 1900 and 1890. 

Aside from the District of Columbia there were 10 
states in which there was in 1910 a population per 
square mile of more than 100. These states, in the 
order of density of population for 1910, are shown in 
Table 24, from which it will be seen that, with respect 
to density of population, the rank was the same at 
each of the censuses named. 

The combined population (36,574,123) of these 10 
sta,tes and the District of Columbia in 1910 consti- 
tuted very nearly two-fifths (39.8 per cent) of the 



total population of the United States, while their 
combined land area (222,675 square miles) comprised 
hardly more than one-fourteenth (7.5 per cent) of the 
entire land area of the country.

There were 16 states, as shown by Table 25, which 
had, on the average, fewer than 18 inhabitants to the 
square mile. Eight of these states are in the Moun- 
tain division (comprising its entire area), 8 are in the 
Pacific division (comprising its entke area), 3 are in 
the West North Central division, 1 is in the West South 
Central division, and 1 in the South Atlantic division. 
Their combined land area (1,718,338 square miles) 
comprises very nearly three-fifths (57.8 per cent) of 
the entire land area of the United States, while their 
combined population (13,828,140) constituted only a 
little more than one-seventh (15 per cent) of the 
total population of the country in 1910. 

Among the outlying possessions Alaska had an average 
density of 0.1 per square mUe; Hawaii, of 29.8, nearly 
that of Arkansas; and Porto Kico, of 325.5, which is 
greater than that of any state of the United States 
except Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New Jersey.

In 1890 there were, on the average, 30.2 acres to 
each inhabitant in the United States, but this number 
was reduced to 25 in 1900 and to 20.7 in 1910, the total 



reduction during the 20 years being very nearly a 
third. 

Divisions and states. — Table 28 shows, by divisions 
and states, the total population and land area in acres 
in 1910 and the number of acres to each inhabitant in 
1910, 1900, and 1890, respectively. 

In the Middle Atlantic division there were in 1910, 
on the average, 3.3 acres of land to each inhabitant, 
while in the Mountain division there were 208.8 acres, 
the corresponding numbers for 1890 being 5 and 453, 
respectively. In Ehode Island, the most densely popu- 
lated state, there were but 1.3 acres per inhabitant in 
1910, while in Nevada there were 858.4 acres. The 
changes in the number of acres per inhabitant are of 
course simply the converse of the changes in the num- 
ber of inhabitants per square mile.

CENTER OF POPULATIOM" AND MEDIAN LINES. 



DEFINITION OF TERMS. 

On the basis of the Thirteenth Census returns the 
center of population and the median point for the 
United States have been determined for April 15, 1910. 
In these calculations no account is taken of the terri- 
tory and population of Alaska and of other outlying 
possessions. The location of the center at the dates 
of the several censuses from 1790 to 1910, and the 
movement of the point from census to census, are 
indicated in the tables and maps of this section, which 
includes also a map on which are drawn the median 
parallel of latitude and the median meridian of longi- 
tude for 1910. 

The term "center of population" as used in census 
publications has a somewhat technical significance, 
different from that frequently attached to it. The 
center is often understood to be the point of inter- 
section of a north and south line which divides the 
population equally, with an east and west liae which 
Ukewise divides it equally. This point of intersection 
is, in a certam sense, a center of population; it is here, 
however, designated the median point to distinguish 
it from the point technically defined as the center. 

The character of these two points may be made 
clear through a physical analogy. The center of 
population may be said to represent the center of 
gravity of the population. If the surface of the United 
States be considered as a rigid plane without weight, 
capable of sustaining the population distributed 



thereon, individuals being assumed to be of equal 
weight, and each, therefore, to exert a pressure on any 
supporting pivotal point directly proportional to his 
distance from the point, the pivotal point on which 
the plane balances would, of course, be its center of 
gravity; and this is the point referred to by the term 
"center of population," as used in this chapter. Con- 
tinuing the above analogy, it may be noted that the 
median point, which may be described as the numerical 
center of population, is in no sense a center of gravity. 
In determining the median point, distance is not taken 
into account, and the location of the units of popu- 
lation is considered only in relation to the intersecting 
median lines — as being north or south of the median 
parallel and east or west of the median meridian. 
Extensive changes in the geographic distribution of 
the population may take place without affecting the 
median point, whereas the center of population re- 
sponds to the shghtest population change in any sec- 
tion of the country. To illustrate, since the median 
point lies east of Minnesota, a million persons could 
move from Minnesota to Oregon without affecting 
the median point, while the removal of 500 persons 
from one town in Indiana to another, across the north 
and south line passing through the median point, 
would change the location of the point. On the other 
hand, the removal of a milUon persons from Minne- 
sota to Oregon would have a very considerable effect 
on the center of population, since, in terms of the 



46 



POPULATION. 



above analogy, the pressure exerted by each indi- 
vidual would increase in proportion to the distance 
traveled away from the center. If all the people in 
the United States were to be assembled at one place, 
the center of population would be the point which 
they could reach with the minimuni aggregate travel, 
assuming that they all traveled in direct lines from 
their residences to the meeting place. 

METHOD OF DETERMDIING THE CENTER OP 
POPULATION. 

In locating the center of population it is first assumed 
to be approximately at a certain point. Through this 
point a parallel and a meridian are drawn, crossing the 
entire country. In determining the center of popula- 
tion in 1910 it was assumed to be at the intersection 
of the parallel of 39° north latitude with the meridian 
of 86° west longitude, which lines were taken as the 
axes of moments. 

The product of the population of a given area by its 
distance from the assumed parallel is called a north 
or south moment, and the product of the population 
of the area by its distance from the assimied meridian 
is called an east or west moment. In calculating 
north and south moments the distances are measured 
in minutes of arc; in calculating east and west mo- 
ments it is necessary to use miles, on account of the 
unequal length of the degrees and minutes in different 
latitudes. The population of the country is grouped 
by square degrees — that is, by areas included between 
consecutive parallels and meridians — as they are con- 
venient units with which to work. The population of 
the principal cities is then deducted from that of the 
respective square degrees in which they lie, and treated 
separately. The center of population of each square 
degree is assumed to be at its geographical center, 
except where such an assumption is manifestly incor- 
rect; in these cases the position of the center of popu- 
lation of the square degree is estimated as nearly as 
possible. The population of each square degree north 
and south of the assumed parallel is multiplied by the 
distance of its center from that parallel; a similar cal- 
culation is made for the principal cities; and the sum 
of the north moments and the sum of the south mo- 
ments are ascertained. The difference between these 
two sums, divided by the total population of the 
country, gives a correction to the latitude. In a 
similar manner the sums of the east and of the west 
moments are ascertained and from them the correction 
in longitude is made. 

THE CENTER OF POPULATION: 1910. 

At the Thirteenth Census the center of population 
was in the following position: 

Latitude 39° 10' 12" N. 

Longitude 86° 32' 20" W. 

This point is in southern Indiana, in the western 
part of Bloomington city, Monroe County, as shown 
on the map on the opposite page. 



During the last decade, 1900-1910, the center of 
population moved west 43' 2Q", approximately 39 
miles, whUe its northward movement was only S6", or 
approximately seven-tenths of a mile. The great 
increase of population in New York and Pennsyl- 
vania tended to counterbalance the increase in Texas, 
Oklahoma, and southern California. The advance 
toward the west was, to a large extent, due to the in- 
crease of population in the Pacific Coast states, their 
distance from the center giving any increase of popu- 
lation in those states much greater weight than an 
equal increase in the states of the East, which are 
nearer the center. The cities of San Francisco, Seattle, 
Portland, and Sacramento combined, with a popula- 
tion in 1910 of 906,016, had, for example, as great an 
influence on the center as had the cities of Philadel- 
phia, Boston, and Baltimore combined, with a popula- 
tion of 2,778,078. An increase of 100,000 in the popu- 
lation of these far western cities would, therefore, 
approximately counterbalance an increase of 300,000 
in the eastern cities named. The westward advance 
in the last decade was nearly three times as great as 
that in the decade 1890-1900, but was less than that 
in any decade between 1810 and 1890. 

LOCATION OF THE CENTER: 1790-1910. 

Table 29 and the map on page 49 show the location 
of the center of population and its proximity to im- 
portant places at each Federal census. 

In the period of 120 years, 1790-1910, the center 
advanced westward 557 miles from its position in 1790 
a httle east of Baltimore. The progress westward 
from census to census has been uninterrupted, being 
greatest — 80.6 rmles — in the decade ending in 1860, 
and least — 14.4 miles — in the decade ending in 1900. 

The net advance southward in this period was only 
7.5 miles. The position of the center in 1790, in lati- 
tude 39° 16' 30", was the extreme northern point, and 
the position in 1830, m latitude 38° 57' 54", the ex- 
treme southern point occupied at any of the several 
censuses from 1790 to 1910, the distance separating 
these parallels being approximately only 21.5 miles. 
The closeness with which the center throughout its 
progress westward has clung to the thirty-ninth par- 
allel of latitude is remarkable. In 1790 it was le^ 
than 20 miles north of this parallel, and in 1830 less 
than 2.5 miles south of it. 

In each of the fh-st four decades, 1790-1830, the 
center moved westward and southward, the aggregate 
advance westward in this period of 40 years being 
166.6 miles, and the aggregate advance southward, as 
noted above, 21.5 miles. In the eight decades from 
1830 to 1910, the point moved alternately northward 
and southward, but considering the period as a whole 
the net deviation from a course due west was very 
slight. The aggregate advance westward in this period 
of 80 years was 390.6 miles; the net advance north- 
ward 13 miles. In traversing this distance the devia- 
tions north and south from a course due west were con- 
fined to the very narrow range of 16.1 miles.

' West Virginia formed part of Virginia until 1860. 



During the decade 1790-1800 tlie center moved 
south only 0.5 mile in advancing west 40.6 miles, but 
in the three decades following it moved south 21 miles 
in advancing west 126 miles. The progress southward 
during this period is largely accounted for by the 
course of the northern boundary of the country, which 
breaks southward through the Great Lakes. The 
population of the area south of the Great Lakes em- 
braced within the two East Central divisions was during 
this period increasing rapidly. The proportion of the 
total population of the country living within this area 
increased from 7.3 per cent in 1800 to 13.5 per cent 
in 1810, 20.6 per cent in 1820, and 25.6 per cent, or 
more than one-quarter of the total, ia 1830. The pro- 
portion living in New England and the Middle Atlantic 
states, on the other hand, decreased from 49.6 per cent 
in 1800 to 43.1 per cent in 1830, while the total number 
of inhabitants enumerated west of the Mississippi 
River at the census of 1830 aggregated only 386,582, 
or 3 per cent of the total population of the country. 
The migration into the East Central divisions from the 
states of the New England and Middle Atlantic divi- 
sions is in the aggregate a migration southward as weU 
as westward. This migration, together with the natu- 
ral increase of population within the area itseU, would 
tend to move the center of population south. Another 
factor which may be noted as in part accounting for 
the advance southward during the decade 1800-1810 
is the fact that at the census of 1810 the area of enumer- 
ation was extended to include the three southern states 
just west of the Mississippi River (Missouri, Arkansas, 
and Louisiana). At the census of 1830, also, the area 
of enumeration was extended southward to include 
Florida. 

In the decade 1820-1830 the increase ia the East 
North Central division did not greatly exceed that in 
the East South Central division, the respective in- 
creases being 677,299 and 625,480. In the following 
decade, however, the population growth was much 
greater ia the Northern than it was in the Southern 
division, the increases beiag 1,454,710 and 759,476, 



respectively. A very considerable portion of the in- 
crease in the Northern division was in the territory 
north of the thirty-ninth parallel and would therefore 
tend to move the center northward. The population of 
Michigan, for example, increased from 31,639 in 1830 
to 212,267 m 1840, or 570.9.per cent. In this decade for 
the first time the center of population moved north- 
ward 4.7 miles in a progress westward of 54.8 miles. 

During the decade 1840-1850 the center moved 
westward 54.7 miles and southward 3.5 mUes, reach- 
ing a point in Virgiaia — now West Virginia — 23 miles 
southeast of Parkersburg, in latitude 38° 59' and longi- 
tude 81° 19'. In explanation of the deflection of the 
course southward, it may be noted that at the census 
of 1850 extensive territory in the Southwest, includiag 
the state of Texas with a population of 212,592, was, 
added to the area of enumeration, and that- the 
increase of population during the decade was large in 
Louisiana (165,351), Arkansas (112,323), and Missouri 
(298,342). 

In the decade 1850-1860 the rapid growth of popu- 
lation in California and generally in the states of the 
far West and of theMississippi Valley carried the point 
west 80.6 miles, a distance which very considerably 
exceeds the westward advance ia any other decade. 
There was a slight deflection (1.6 miles) of the course 
northward. 

The maximum advance northward shown for any 
decade — 13.3 miles — is that for the decade 1860-1870 
and the maximum advance southward — 9.1 mUes — 
that for the succeeding decade, 1870-1880. The 
northerly advance indicated by the census of 1870 is 
largely accounted for by the defective enumeration of 
the population in the Southern states at that census 
(see p. 24). The population returns for 1870 do not 
in fact accurately indicate the location of the center in 
that year. If it be assumed that the advance during 
the 20 years from 1860 to 1880 was in a course whose 
direction was practically unvarying throughout the 
period, the location of the center ia 1870 was approxi- 
mately 1 1 miles south of the position given ia Table 29. 




82594°— 13 i

POPULATION. 



The net advance northward in these 20 years was 
4.2 miles. This advance for two decades is not incon- 
sistent with the advance northward of 1.6 miles in the 
decade 1850-1860. It is, however, quite conceivable 
that the loss of population m the South, caused by the 
Givil War, may have been sufficient to carry the center 
of population northward somewhat out of the course 
which it would have followed in moving directly from 
the position occupied in 1860 to that occupied in 1880. 

In 1880 the center was located near Cinciunati, Ohio. 
During the decade 1880-1890 it moved westward 47.7 
miles, and northward 9 mUes, the advance north- 
ward being the result of the rapid population growth 
during the decade in the states of the Northwest. The 
population of Washington, for example, increased 
282,116, or 375.6 per cent during this decade. 

Between 1890 and 1900 the growth of population in 
the country as a whole, amounting to 13,046,861, was 
so distributed geographically as to occasion only a very 
slight shifting of the center of population. The dis- 
tance moved from point to point was only 14.6 miles, 
the westward advance being 14.4 miles and the south- 
ward 2.8 miles. If the percentages of increase for the 
several divisions be noted it will be found that the 
range of variation in these rates was much less for the 
decade 1890-1900 than in any other decade, the range 
being from 15.8 in the West North Central division to 
38 in the Mountain division. In the preceding decade 
the range of variation in the rates for the different 
divisions was from 15.1 to 85.9, and in the decade 
1900-1910, from 11.4 to 73.5. The slight shifting in 
the position of the center shown by the census of 1900 
indicates that the geographic distribution of the in- 
crease in population during the decade 1890-1900 was 
more nearly proportional to the distribution of the 
population at the beginning of the decade than has 
been the case in any other decade from 1790 to 1910. 

THE CENTER OF AREA. 

In connection with the location of the center of 
population it is of interest to note also the position of 
what may be termed the center of area — that is, the 
point on which the surface of the United States 
would balance if it were a plane of uniform weight 
per unit of area. This point is located in northern 
Kansas, 10 miles north of Smith Center, the county 
seat of Smith County (approximate latitude 39° 55', 
longitude 98° 50'), and is therefore about three-fourths 
of a degree (51 miles) north and 12^ degrees (657 
miles) west of the center of population. Its location 
is shown on the map opposite designating the position 
of the median lines. This would be the center of 
population if the population were distributed evenly 
over the territory of the United States. In locating 
the center of area, no account is taken of the area of 
outlying possessions. 

MEDIAN LINES. 

Another method of indicating the geographic dis- 
tribution of the population is that involving the loca- 



tion of median lines. A parallel of latitude is deter- 
mined which evenly divides the population so that 
the population north of that parallel is the same 
as that south. Similarly, a meridian of longitude is 
determined which divides the population evenly 
so that the population east is equal to that west of the 
meridian. In locating these median lines it is neces- 
sary, in the case of the square degrees of latitude and 
longitude which are traversed by the lines themselves 
to assume that the population is evenly distributed 
through these square degrees or to make an estimated 
adjustment where this is obviously not the case. 

The eastern terminus of the median parallel, accord- 
ing to the census ot 1910, is on the New Jersey 
coast near Sea Girt. In its course west this line 
passes through central New Jersey, leaving the state 
near Burlington and entering Peimsylvania a few 
miles north of Philadelphia, thence passing through 
Norristown and continuing through, southern Penn- 
sylvania and across the northern extremity of West 
Virginia, leaving the latter state at a point a few 
nules north of Wheeling. It nearly bisects Ohio, 
Indiana, and Illinois, crossing; about 10 miles north of 
Columbus, Ohio, 25 miles north of Indianapolis, Ind., 
and about 20 miles north of Springfield, lU. Through 
Missouri it runs about 30 miles south of the Iowa and 
Missouri line, thence passing through Nebraska about 
10 miles north of its southern boundary, and across 
the northern part of Colorado, passing about 5 miles 
north of Boulder city. Its location in Utah is about 
45 miles south of Salt Lake City near Spanish Fork. 
There are no large towns near its course across the 
northern part of Nevada and California. The western 
terminus of the median parallel is on the Pacific coast, 
in Humboldt County, Cal., about 5 miles north of 
Point Delgada and 20 miles south of Cape Mendocino, 
the point of continental United States extending 
farthest west. 

The median meridian starts at Whitefish Point, on 
the northern peninsula of Michigan, near the eastern 
end of Lake Superior, thence passing south through 
the southern peninsula of Michigan about 25 miles 
west of Lansing and through Indiana about 10 miles 
west of the Indiana-Ohio boundary and 25 miles west 
of Cincinnati. South of the Ohio River it bisects 
Kentucky about 40 miles east of Louisville, crosses 
eastern Tennessee, and leaves the state 20 miles east 
of Chattanooga. Through Georgia it passes close 
to the Georgia-Alabama line, about 2 miles west of 
Columbus, Ga., leaving the state near the conjunction 
of the Alabama, Georgia, and Florida boundarj'^ lines. 
It then crosses the northwestern portion of Florida 
and terminates in the Gulf of Mexico at the city of 
Apalachicola. 

During the last three decades, from 1880 to 1910, 
there has been little change in the location of these 
lines — so slight in fact that the changes can not be' 
accurately shown on a small map. For this reason 
the median lines are not drawn on the following map 
for any years prior to 1910.

POPULATION. 



The median parallel has moved north a distance of 
11.3 miles since 1880. In the same period the median 
meridian has moved west 45.3 miles. Each of the 
three decades has shown a slight movement of the 
parallel north and of the meridian west. Between 
1900 and 1910, hoVever, the northern movement was 
only 2.3 miles, and the westward only 7.5 miles. The 



greatest change took place in the decade 1880-1890, 
during which period the median parallel moved north 
6.6 milee, and the median meridian west 27 miles. 
The location of these lines at the several censuses, 
from 1880 to 1910, is shown in Table 30. Their loca- 
tion in 1910 is shown on the map on the preceding 
page.

It may be observed that while each median line 
exactly bisects the population as a whole it does not 
at any given point or through any given section of its 
course necessarily bisect the population even approxi- 
mately. The median parallel does not bisect even 
approximately the population living either west or east 
of the Mississippi River. Similarly, the median merid- 
ian does not bisect the population either of the north- 
ern or the southern section of the country. Nor does 
any one of the four sections into which the intersecting 
median lines divide the country contain one-quarter 
of the total population. It is obvious, however, that 
the diagonally opposite sections are necessarily exactly 
equal in population.^ The population of the north- 
eastern section exactly equals the population of the 
southwestern; and, similarly, the population of the 
southeastern exactly equals that of the northwestern. 
The northeastern and southwestern each contain, in 
fact, a population of about 27,500,000, while the south- 
eastern and northwestern sections each contain a 
population of about 18,500,000. 

MEDIAN POINT. 

What is termed by the Census Bureau the "median 
point" of the population corresponds, as already 
stated, to a common conception of the center of popu- 
lation; that is, it is the junction of the median line 
dividing the population equally north and south with 

1 The mathematical demonstration of tliis is simple. If A, B, 
C, and D represent, respectively, the population of the north- 
western, northeastern, southeastern, and southwestern sections, 
then: 

A+B=J population of U. S. 

B+C=* population of U. S. 

A+B=B+C. 

Therefore A=C. 

Similarly it may be proven that B=D. 



the median line dividing it equally east and west, dis- 
tance of the population from the point not being con- 
sidered. As already indicated, the changes in the 
median point reflect only the difference between the 
growth of population east of the point and the growth 
west of it and the difference between the growth north 
and south of the point. Other dififerences in relative 
growth do not affect its location. 

In 1910 the median point was located at latitude 
40° 6' 24" north and longitude 84° 59' 59" west, prac- 
tically the eighty-fifth meridian, or 3i mUes south of 
Winchester,RandolphCounty, Ind.; its westward move- 
ment during the decade was 7.5 miles, its northward 
movement 2.3 mUes. Comparing its movement since 
1900 with that of the center of population, it will be 
noted that the north movement of the median point 
was 1.5 miles more than that of the center, while the 
center of population moved west 31.4 miles more than 
the median point, showing that the increase in the popu^ 
lation of the Pacific coast and of the far west gen- 
erally had a much greater influence on the movement 
of the center of population than upon that of the 
median point. 

The exact location of the median point is indicated 
by the median lines already shown; in Table 31 its 
approximate location with reference to certain places 
is described.

URBAN AND RURAL POPULATION.

URBAN AND RURAL POPULATION. 



DEFINITION OF TERMS. 

The Census Bureau classifies as urban population 
that residing in cities and other incorporated places of 
2,500 inhabitants or more, including New England 
towns of that size. In most sections of the country 
all or practically all densely populated areas of this 
size are set off from rural territory and incorporated 
as municipalities (variously known as cities, towns, 
villages, boroughs, etc.). In New England, however, 
this is often not the case. 

Some of the New England towns are densely popu- 
lated throughout their area, and some are, on the 
other hand, strictly rural throughout. Many of the 
towns consist in part of distinctly rm-al territory and 
m part of densely populated areas which are not incor- 
porated separately and for which it is unpossible to 
make separate population returns. For this reason it 
has been necessary in the New England states to in- 
clude with the urban population residing in incorpo- 
rated cities the population also of all towns having 
2,500 inhabitants or more. The urban areas in New 
England, as classified by the census, therefore, include 
some population which, in other sections of the United 
States, would be segregated as rural. Nevertheless, m 
most of the New England towns of 2,500 inhabitants or 
more, the larger part of the population is embraced in 
the densely settled parts, so that the proportion of the 
population classed as urban in the New England states 
is not so greatly exaggerated by the practice thus 
adopted as might appear at first thought. 

Urban population being thus defined, the remain- 
der of the country is classed as rural, consisting 
of all unincorporated territory and of incorporated 
places and New England towns of less than 2,500 
inhabitants. 

The comparisons of the urban and rural population 
in 1910 with that at earlier enumerations may be made 
either with respect to the varying proportions of the 
two classes at successive enumerations or with respect 
to the increase between enumerations. In order to 
contrast the proportion of the total population living 
in urban or rxiral territory at the census of 1910 with 
the proportion urban or rural at the preceding census, 
it is necessary to classify the territory according to 
the conditions as they existed at each census. In this 
comparison a place having less than 2,500 inhabit- 
ants in 1900 and over 2,500 in 1910 is classed with the 
rural ten-itory for 1900 and with the urban for 1910. 
On the other hand, in order to present f ahly the con- 
trast between urban and raral communities, as regards 
their rate of groivtTi, it is necessary to consider the 
changes in population which have occurred from one 
decennial census to another in exactly the same terri- 
tory. For this purpose the territory which in 1910 was 



urban or rural, as the case may be, is taken as the basis, 
and the population in 1900 for the same territory (so 
far as separately reported at that census) is presented, 
even though part of the temtory may, on the basis 
of its population at the earlier census, have then been 
in a different class. This method avoids the disturb- 
ing effect on comparisons of the rate of growth which 
would arise from the passage, for example, of commu- 
nities formerly classed as rural into the urban group. 

It should be noted in this connection that, even if 
there were no difference between urban and rural 
communities with respect to the rate of growth, there 
would nevertheless be a constantly increasmg propor- 
tion of urban population provided the population of 
the country as a whole were increasing. Were there 
no movement from country to city, no disturbing 
effect from international migration, and no difference 
between urban and rural communities with respect to 
the natural increase from excess of births over deaths, 
there would still be, in a growing population, a con- 
stant passage of certain communities from the rural 
to the urban class. The smaller towns, maintammg 
a rate of growth uniform with that of the country as 
a whole, would one by one pass the limit of 2,500 
mhabitants fixed for the urban population, and thus 
the proportion of urban population would mcrease 
gradually from census to census. As a matter of fact, 
however, m the United States the urban communities 
have a much higher rate of growth than the rural 
communities, and the rapid increase in the proportion 
of urban population is largely due to the difference in 
the rate of growth. 

The statistics as to urban and rural population in 
this section relate only to the United States exclusive 
of outlying possessions.

territory.

POPULATION. 



Table 32 shows a steady and rapid increase in the 
proportion of urban population, which rose from 29.5 
per cent in 1880 to 36.1 per cent in 1890, 40.5 per 
cent ill 1900, and 46.3 per cent in 1910. This is a 
continuation of a tendency which has been manifested 
conspicuously ever since 1820. While the advance in 
the percentage of m'ban population from 1900 to 1910 
was appreciably greater than from 1890 to 1900, it was 
somewhat less than the advance from 1880 to 1890. 

It would be extremely difficult, if at aU possible, 
from the earher census reports to even approximate 
closely the population in urban territory, as herein 
defined, and no such compilation, therefore, has been 
attempted for censuses prior to that of 1880. (For a 
tabulation giving the last four censuses see Table 40.) 
The census report for 1880, however, contained a com- 
parative statement of the population hving in places 
of 8,000 inhabitants or more at each census back to 
1790, and, as affording an approximation of the steady 
growth of urban population from the earhest to the 
latest census, it seems worth while to reproduce in 
Table 33 so much of this statement as apphes to the 
censuses prior to 1880 and to give in conjunction there- 
with substantially equivalent figures for the last four 
censuses, 1880-1910, covering the same limit of popu- 
lation — 8,000 inhabitants or more — but including New 
England towns of that size.

From Table 33 and the accompanyuig diagram it 
may be seen that in 1790 about one-thirtieth (3.3 per 
cent) of the population of the country was hving in 
places of 8,000 inhabitants or more, in 1820 about one- 
twentieth (4.9 per cent), in 1850 about one-eighth 
(12.5 per cent), in 1900 about one-third (33.1 per cent), 
and in 1910 not quite two-fifths (38.8 per cent). A 
diagram is presented below, showing the proportions 
of urban (2,500 inhabitants or more) and rural popu- 
lation at each census from 1880 to 1910.

Divisions and states. — ^Table 36 (p. 56) shows, by 
divisions and states, the urban andrural population, and 
the per cent urban and rural, at the censuses of 1910, 
1900, 1890, and 1880, respectively. As shown by this 
table, the proportions of the total population living 
in urban and rural territory vary greatly in different 
sections of the country. 

In the New England division more than four-fifths 
of the population in 1910 lived in urban territory, as 
defined by the Census Bureau. Vermont was the only 
state in this division in which the proportion was less 
than one-half, while in Rhode Island and Massachu- 
setts it was more than nine-tenths. Were it possible to 
determine the urban population in this division on the 
same basis as for the rest of the country, the proportion 
for New England as a whole would probably be some- 
what less than three-fourths. It is probable that 
among the individual states the exaggeration resulting 
from the census defuiition of urban territory is least in 
Massachusetts, Ehode Island, and Connecticut, and 
that in the three remaining states the exaggeration is 
considerable, especially in Vermont. Urban popula- 
tion constituted more than seven-tenths of the total in 
the Middle Atlantic division and more than one-half in 
the East North Central and Pacific divisions. The 
lowest proportion of urban population is found in the 
South^ — 25.4 per cent in the South Atlantic division, 
18.7 in the East South Central, and 22.3 in the West 
South Central. 

In the North the urban population in 1910 num- 
bered 32,669,705 and the rural 23,087,410, the per- 
centage urban being 58.6. In the South the urban 
population was 6,623,838 and the rural 22,765,492, 
the proportion urban being 22.5 per cent. In the West, 
with an urban population of 3,329,840 and a rural of 
3,495,981, the percentage urban was 48.8.

In each of the niae geographic divisions the propor- 
tion of the population living in urban communities 
was larger in 1910 than in 1900, and larger in 1900 than 
in 1890. The proportion increased with exceptional 
rapidity from 1900 to 1910 in' the Pacific division, 
where cities have shown a remarkable growth. 

The per cent distribution by geographic sections and 
divisions, of the urban and rural population, respec- 
tively, m 1910 is given in Table 34.

More than two-thirds of the urban population of 
continental United States in 1910 was contained in 
three geographic divisions, namely, the New England, 
Mddle Atlantic, and East North Central. These divi- 
sions, on the other hand, contained only a little more 
than three-tenths of the rural population of the country 
ml910. 

The maps on page 58 and the diagram in the next 
column show the percentage of urban population in 
1910 and 1900, respectively, for each of the states, while 
the full-page diagram on page 59 presents graphically 
for each state the per cent urban in the total population 
for each decade from 1880 to 1910. As shown by the 
map for 1910 and by Table 36 there are 14 states in 
which more than half the population in 1910 was Uving 
in territory classified as urban. The percentage urban 
for each of these states in 1910 was as follows: Rhode 
Island, 96.7; Massachusetts, 92.8; Connecticut, 89.7; 
New York, 78.8; New Jersey, 75.2; Cahfornia, 61.8; 
Illinois, 61.7; Pennsylvania, 60.4; New Hampshire, 
59.2; Ohio, 55.9; Washington, 53 ; Maine, 51.4; Mary- 
land, 50.8; Colorado, 50.7. For reasons aheady stated 
the percentages for the New England states are some- 
what exaggerated. 

In Table 35 the density of the rural population in 
1910 is given by divisions. In this table the rural 



population is related to the total land area, no deduc- 
tion being made for area classified as urban. Outside 
of New England the urban area in the divisional aggre- 
gates is too inconsiderable materially to affect the 
results. The distribution by states of the rural popu- 
lation in 1910 is also indicated by a map following page 
124, in which the county has been taken as the unit.

POPULATION. 



INCREASE IN URBAN AND BTJIIAL POPULATION. 

United States as a whole. — In order to compare the 
rate qfgrowtli in urban and rural communities, it is nec- 
essary in each case, as previously explained, to consider 
the changes m population which have occurred in the 
same territory from one decennial census to another. 
For this purpose communities are classed as urban or 
rural according to their population in 1910, and the 
population of the places as thus classified is then deter- 
mined for 1900 for purjjoses of comparison. It should 
be noted further that, in the case of communities 
whose boundaries were changed between 1900 and 
1910, the 23opulation for 1900 in the area comprised 
within the boundaries of 1910 has been taken as the 
ba<3is for comparison wherever it was possible to segre- 
gate such population. 

The increase from 1900 to 1910 in urban and rural 
population on this basis is shown, for the United 
States, in Table 37. 

The total population living in urban territory in 
1910 — that is, in those incorporated places and New 
England towns which at that time had a population of 
not less than 2,500 each— was 42,623,383; in 1900 the 
total population of these same places (so far as sepa- 
rately reported) was 31,609,645. The increase in urban 
population was thus 11,013,738, or 34.8 per cent. 
The total population living in rural territory in 1910 — 
that is, in territory outside of urban communities as 
above defined — was 49,348,883, as compared with a 
total population of 44,384,930 living in the same terri- 
tory in 1900, an increase of 4,963,953, or 11.2 per cent. 
The rate of increase for the population of areas which 
were urban in 1910 was thus over three times that for 
the population of territory which was rural. The 
figure given for 1900 is considerably larger than the 
figure previously given for the total population in 1900 
of those places which at that time had over 2,500 each, 
namely, 30,797,185. The difference (812,460) is the 
net result of the changes which have occurred in the 
several states and territories, arising, first, from the 
passage of places classed as rural in 1900 into the urban 
group in 1910, either as separate communities or by 
annexation to places which in 1910 had over 2,500 
inhabitants; and, second, from the falling back into 
the rural group in 1910 of a few places which in 1900 
had over 2,500 inhabitants but which in 1910 had less 
than that number. 

Of the total increase in the population of the United 
States during the past decade (15,977,691), approxi- 
mately seven-tenths was in territory urban in 1910 
and three-tenths in territory rural. 

Divisions and states. — Table 39 (p. 62) shows, hy 
divisions and states, the aggregate population in 1910 
and 1900 of the territory classed as urban and of that 
classed as rural in 1910, and the increase or decrease 
during the decade. 

The largest percentages of increase in urban popu- 
lation between 1900 and 1910 were reported for the 



Pacific, West South Central, and Mountam divisions, 
in the order named, these percentages being 101.8, 
68.5, and 64.7, respectively. These same divisions 
also showed higher rates ol increase in rural population 
than any of the others, though the increase in rural 
population was much less rapid than that in urban 
population, being for these divisions 46.4, 27.1, and 
53.4 per cent, respectively. The New England di- 
vision, on the other hand, showed the smallest per- 
centage of increase m urban population, namely, 21.5 
per cent. For this division there was a slight de- 
crease in rural population which, it will be remembered, 
is the population living in towns which had less than 
2,500 ijihabitants in 1910. 

The other five geographic divisions differed little 
from one another in the jjercentages of increase in 
urban population, the rates ranging from 28.2 per cent 
for the West North Central division to 33.1 per cent 
for the Middle Atlantic division. They showed greater 
contrasts in the growth of rural population. In the 
South Atlantic division the increase in rural jjopula- 
tion was 12.3 per cent; in the Middle Atlantic, West 
North Central, and East South Central divisions it was 
between 5 and 10 per cent; and in the East North 
Central division there was a slight decrease in rural 
population. 

Although, as Is shown in Table 37, the aggregate 
absolute increase (7,501,782) in the four divisions of the 
North for territory classified as urban in 1910, greatly 
exceeded the corresponding aggregate increase in the 
three divisions of the South (1,938,095) and in the two 
divisions of the West (1,573,861), the percentage in- 
crease for the urban in the North (29.8) was much 
below the corresponding percentage for the South 
(41 .4), or for the West (89.6) . The percentage increase 
for the rural population in the North (3.9) was much 
below the corresponding percentage for the South 
(14.8) and for the West (49.7). ^ .

There was in every state between 1900 and 1910 an 
increase m urban population, but in six states — 
namely. New Hampshire, Vermont, Ohio, Indiana, 
Iowa, and Missouri — there was a decrease in rural 
population. In all but two states — Montana and 
Wyoming — the urban population increased faster than 
the rural population, and generally at a much more

rapid rate. There is no state iii wliich the increase in 
urban population was less than 1 per cent, and in six 
states — namely, Oklahoma, Idaho, Arizona, Nevada, 
Washington, and Oregon — it was more than 100 per 
cent. There are 22 states, on the other hand, in which 
the rural population either decreased or showed an 
increase of less than 10 per cent. These include nearly 
all the northern states east of the Kocky Mountains, 
the Dakotas, however, being conspicuous exceptions. 

The decrease or slow increase in the rural population 
thi'oughout large areas is in no sense due to lack of 
agricultural prosperity. On the contrary, in almost 
aU such areas there has been a remarkable increase m 
the value of farm property. _ In Table 38, which 
includes 22 states with little or no increase in rural 
population, the percentage changes in rural popula- 
tion are compared with the percentage changes in 
average value of farm land per acre for the decade 
1900-1910. 

The maps on page 63 show the rates of increase 
in urban and in rural population since 1900 for each 
state. In states shown in white on the second map 



the rural population decreased; for the other states, 
as for all states on the first map, the different rates 
of increase are indicated by diflferences in shading.

POPULATION. 
COMMTTNITIES CLASSIFIED ACCORDIITG TO SIZE. 



PROPORTION IN THE SEVERAL CLASSES OF 
COMMUNITIES. 

United States as a whole. — In addition to classify- 
ing the population according to the broad grouping 
into urban and rural, a further analysis may be made 
on the basis of a more detailed size classification. 
Comparison is first made of the proportion of the total 
population residing in communities of the several 
groups at each of the last four censuses . In making this 
comparison, therefore, a community may at one cen- 
sus be in one group and at another census in another 
group. 

Table 40 shows, for the United States as a whole, 
the number of places constituting each of the specified 
classes at the censuses of 1910, 1900, 1890, and 1880, 
the combined population of each group, and the per- 
centage which each group contained of the total popu- 
lation of the country. Under the heading "Urban 
territory," which in the previous discussion has been 
considered as a unit, the communities of 2,500 inhabit- 
ants or more are here divided into nine classes of 
places by size, while the population of the rural 



territory is also subdivided by' distinguishing the 
population living in incorporated places of less than 
2,500 inhabitants from that living in unincorporated 
territory. Only incorporated places and New Eng- 
land towns of 2,500 inhabitants or more are included 
m the urban classes for 1910, 1900, and 1880. At the 
census of 1890, however, separate returns for urban 
communities were not confined to incorporated places, 
and as the mcorporated places were not distinguished 
from the unincorporated, the number of incorporated 
places can not be accurately determined for that year. 
The number of unincorporated places of 2,500 or more 
inhabitants outside of New England was, however, 
small. For the urban classes, therefore, the figures for 
1890 are fairly comparable with those of other cen- 
suses. In order to make the figures for incorporated 
places of less than 2,500 inhabitants in 1890 comparable 
with corresponding figures for the three other years 
shown in the table, the number of such places in 1890 has 
been estimated according to the method adopted in the 
Census Keport for 1900. (See Note 2, Table 40.)

1 The total number of places of certain classes for the United States as a whole, and for certain geographic divisions, is less than tlie sum of the numbers shown for the 
individual states of the country or of the division, for the reason that three cities each lie in two adjoining states, namely, Bristol (Virginia and Tennessee), Tex- 
arkana (Arkansas and Texas), and Union Clity (Indiana and Ohio), and are therefore counted twice. Moreover, one of these cities— Bristol— lies in two different divisions 
(South Atlantic and East South Central). Bach of these cities consists of two incorporated municipalities, but each is, from the statistical standpoint, one city, and should 
be classed according to its total population. In each case that part of the population lying in each state, whatever its number, is credited to tlie group of cities to which, 
according to the total population, the city belongs. According to total population, Bristol fell in 1910 in the class of cities of 10,000-25,000. in 1900 and in 1890 in the class 
5,000-10,000, and in ISSO in the class 2,500-5,000; Texarkana fell in 1910 and 1900 in the class of 10,000-25,000, in 1890 in the class 5,000-10,000, and in 1880 in the class 
2,500-5,000; and Union City fell at each census from 1880 to 1910 in the class of 2,500-5,000. 

2 The number of incorporated places can not be exactly determined from the returns for 1890. This census did not distinguish incorporated from unincorporated 
places, and did not enumerate separately very small places, whether incorporated or not. It has been assumed that those places were incorporated in 1890 which 
were separately returned in that year and returned in 1900 as incorporated. (See Census of 1900, Population, I, Iviii.) Tlie figures given for 1890 in Table 40, for 
incorporated places of less than 2,500 inhabitants may, therefore, include some unincorporated places and omit some incorporated places. 



In addition to the 46.3 per cent of the total popu- 
lation which in 1910 resided in communities classed 
by the Census Bureau as urban, 8.8 per cent resided 
in incorporated places of less than 2,500 inhabitants, 
the aggregate population Hving m mcorporated places 
being 50,742,208, or 55.1 per cent of the total popu- 
lation. Although this aggregate does not mclude the 
population living m unmcorporated villages, it is ap- 
proximately the total for what may be described as 
the agglomerated population of the country. The 
population living in rural territory outside of incor- 
porated places — numbering 41,230,058, and constitut- 



ing 44.8 per cent of the total population — although it 
includes a small village population is in the aggregate 
a scattered population, and is, therefore, more essen- 
tially rural in character than the aggregate rural given 
m Table 40, which mcludes the population of small 
incorporated places. It may be noted that the con- 
ditions of environment and of occupation for the 
population of small as well as of large villages are 
essentially dhlerent from those which prevail in dis- 
tinctly rural districts outside of such villages. 

The urban population of continental United States 
in 1910 was contained in 2,402 cities and other urbuD 



COMMUNITIES CLASSIFIED BY SIZE.

places with, a combined population of 42,623,383, or 
46.3 per cent of the total population of the country. 
Fifty of these places were cities of 100,000 inhabitants 
or more, with a combined population of 20,302,138) 
or 22.1 per cent of the total population, and 179 were 
cities of from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants, with a 
combined population of 8,241,678, or 9 per cent of 
the total population. These two groups together 
had a combuied population of 28,543,816, or some- 
what more than thi-ee-tenths (31.1 per cent) of the 
total population of the country. 

Nearly one-tenth (9.2 per cent) of the total popu- 
lation in 1910 resided in the three cities (New York, 
Chicago, and Philadelphia) which had more than 
1,000,000 inliabitants each. The small urban com- ' 
munities of from 2,500 to 25,000 inliabitants contained 
15.3 per cent of the total population. 

Comparing the percentages for the four censuses, 
it is seen that each of the several groups of communi- 
ties classed as urban comprised a larger percentage 
of the population of the country in 1910 than in 1900; 
that, with three exceptions, each class in 1900 com- 
prised a larger percentage of the total population than 
in 1890; and that, with one exception, each class in 
1890 comprised a larger percentage than in 1880. 
The fact that the proportion of the population residing 
in cities of from 250,000 to 500,000 inhabitants was 
less in 1900 than m 1890 was due to the passage of two 
cities (Boston and Baltimore) from this class in 1890 
to the next higher class in 1900. A similar explana- 
tion applies to the fact that the proportion residing 
in cities of 100,000 to 250,000 inhabitants was slightly 
less in 1900 than in 1890. 

In Table 41 the grouping of cities is such as to throw 
into one aggregate the total population living in cities 
having more than the specified population.

Whereas, in 1880, 2.4 per cent of the population 
resided in cities of 1,000,000 inhabitants or more, this 
proportion had risen to 9.2 per cent in 1910. Cities of 
over 100,000 inhabitants together contained, in 1880, 
12.4 per cent of the population, as compared with 22.1 
per cent in 1910. Cities of medium size, namely, those 
82594°— 13- 5 



having from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants, contained 
4.8 per cent of the population in 1880 and 8.9 per 
cent in 1910. The proportion of the population 
residing in smaller urban communities having 2,500 
to 25,000 inhabitants has shown somewhat less 
change, being 12.2 per cent in 1880 and 15.3 per cent 
in 1910. 

Divisions and states. — The population of each class of 
urban places and that of rural districts in the several 
geographic sections and divisions in 1910 is shown in 
Table 43, from which the percentages in Table 42 are 
derived. Very great differences appear among the sev- 
eral divisions with respect to the distribution of the 
urban population among communities of different sizes. 
There are only two of the nine divisions which contained 
cities of more than 1,000,000 inhabitants in 1910 and 
two contained no city of over 250,000 inhabitants. In 
Table 43, because of the facts just stated, the classes 
of cities having more than 100,000 inhabitants are 
combined.

Table 42 shows that the Middle Atlantic division 
had in 1910 a larger proportion (44.5 per cent) of its 
population living in cities of 100,000 inhabitants or 
more than any other division. The next division was 
the Pacific, in which a little more than one-third of 
the inhabitants lived in cities of that size. In the 
New England division a little less than one-fourth 
and in the East North Central a little more than one- 
fourth of the population resided in such cities, while 
m the other five divisions the proportion found in 
such cities was very much smaller. In three of the 
four divisions just named as having a large propor- 
tion of their population in cities of 100,000 inhabitants 
or more, there is no other class of cities having any- 
thing approaching to the same proportion; but in 
New England 25 per cent of the population was found 
in cities and towns of from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabit- 
ants, as compared with 24.5 per cent in cities of 
more than 100,000. In the West South Central and 
Mountain divisions also a larger proportion of the 
population was found in cities of from 25,000 to 
100,000 inhabitants than in the larger cities.

1 See Note 1 to 

The population of the several divisions and states 
at the last four Federal censuses is distributed among 
cities and other places grouped accordmg to specified 
limits of population in Table 46. 

The 229 places of 25,000 inhabitants or more as 
shown by Table 46, are distributed among 40 states, 
9 states having no cities of over 25,000 inhabitants. 
Besides the District of Columbia, which is wholly 
urban, there are 15 states in which the percentage of 
the total population in 1910 living in cities of over 
25,000 inhabitants exceeded that for continental 
United States as a whole (31.1) and in some of these 
states the proportion was very large, notably ia New 
York, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New Jersey. 

There are only three states — Delaware, Utah, and 
Nevada — which did not in 1910 contain one or more 
places belonging to each of the other groups of smaller 
urban communities. 

The distance which would separate cities from one 
another if they were so located within the given area 
as to be equidistant from one another, measuring the 
distance from central points within the cities, may be 
called the proximity of cities. This index — which 
assumes an artificial distribution of cities and area — 
is somewhat similar to the density figure for popula- 
tion, which assumes an artificial distribution of in- 
dividuals over a given area. At each census the 
proximity of cities has decreased, and for each class of 
cities it is less m the eastern divisions than it is in the 
western, as shown in Table 44. On the assumption 
made, places of 2,500 inhabitants or more in 1910 
would, considering the country as a whole, be separated 
by 38.1 miles. The average proximity of such places 
in 1900 was 43 miles, a,nd in 1890 48.1 miles. Con- 
sidering places of 10,000 inhabitants, or more then- 
average proximity was, in 1910, 76.2 miles; in 1900, 
88.5 miles; and in 1890, 98.9 miles. Restricting the 
calculation to places of 25,000 or more, the average 



Table 40, p. 64. 

proximity of such places was, in 1910, 123.5 miles; 
in 1900, 147.3 miles; and m 1890, 167.2 miles. In 
1910 places of 2,600 inliabitants or more in the Moun-

Of the total urban population of the United States 
in 1910, nearly one-third was found in places of 2,500 
to 25,000 inhabitants, nearly one-fifth in places of 
25,000 to 100,000, and nearly one-half in places of 
more than 100,000 inhabitants. Comparing 1S80 with 
1910 there has been a material decrease in the pro- 
portion in places of from 100,000 to 1,000,000 inhabit- 
ants and in those of from 2,500 to 25,000- inhabitants, 
and a material increase in the proportion in places of 
more than 1,000,000 inhabitants, with a slight increase 
as well in those of from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants. 

GROWTH OF THE SEVERAL CLASSES OF URBAN 
COMMUNITIES. 

TTnited States as a whole. — In comparing the growth 
of the several classes of urban communities from 1900 
to 1910, each community is grouped, for both censuses, 
according to its population in 1910, so as to avoid the 
disturbing effect of the passage of communities from 
one group to another. The population shown for 



1900 represents, so far as it could be ascertained, the 
population within the boundaries of the communities 
as constituted in 1910. The comparison for the United 
States as a whole is presented in Table 47. With 
one exception, there was no very great difference 
in the rates of growth of the several classes of urban 
communities. There are two groups in which the in- 
crease in population between 1900 and 1910 was some- 
what more than 40 per cent, namely, cities of from 
100,000 to 250,000 inliabitants and those of from 50,000 
to 100,000. For all but one of the other groups the 
increase was between 30 and 40 per cent. The re- 
maining group — that comprising five cities having in 
1910 from 500,000 to 1,000,000 inhabitants— showed 
an increase during the decade of barely 20 per cent. 
The five cities comprising this group are St. Louis, 
Boston, Cleveland, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh, and for 
only one of them was the individual rate of increase 
more than 20 per cent, namely, Cleveland, with 46.9 
per cent.

Divisions and states. — Table 48 presents a com- 
parison of the increase, between 1900 and 1910, in 
the population of different classes of urban com- 
munities and of rural territory in each of the nine 



geographic divisions of the United States. The num- 
ber of classes of urban communities shown in Table 48 
has been reduced to three by consohdating some of 
the minor groups shown in the table immediately 
preceding. 

For the Pacific, West South Central, and Mountain 
divisions — the three divisions having the largest per- 
centages of increase in total urban population since 
1900 — the table shows increases ranging from about 50 
to more than 100 per cent for each of the three classes 
of urban communities, with one exception, that the 
single city of over 100,000 in the West South Central 
division (New Orleans) increased only 18.1 per cent. 

In the remaining divisions, with one exception, 
the rates of increase for the three classes of urban 
communities ranged from 20 to somewhat more than 40 
per cent. The exception is the group of smaller urban 
communities in the New England division, for which 
there was an increase of only 16.7 per cent.

1 A minus sign (— ) denotes decrease. 



2 See Note 1 to Table 40, p. 64. 



3 Decrease of less than one-tenth of 1 per cent. 



In five divisions — the Middle Atlantic, South Atlan- 
tic, East South Central, Mountain, and Pacific — the 
rate of increase for places of 2,500 to 25,000 inhabit- 
ants was higher than for either of the other two 
groups. In three divisions — the New England, East 
North Central, and West South Central — the rate of 
increase was highest for the medium-sized places, those 
having from 25,000 to 100,000 inhabitants. Only in 
the West North Central division was the rate for cities 
of 100,000 or more higher than for either of the other 
two groups. 

The general fact that urban communities in all sec- 
tions of the United States are growing more rapidly 
than rural communities has already been shown. 
Table 49 shows that this is true, with few exceptions, 
also of each class of urban communities. 

In each of the three groups of urban communities, 



as shown by Table 48, there has been, for the United 
States as a whole, an increase from 1900 to 1910 of 
more than 30 per cent. There are 10 states, however, 
in which the increase during the decade was less than 
30 per cent for each group of urban communities rep- 
resented in the respective states. These states, in 
their geographic order, are Maine, New Hampshire, 
Vermont, Rhode Island, Missouri, Nebraska, Dela- 
ware, Maryland, Kentucky, and Wyoming. There 
are 17 other states in which the increase for one or 
more of the specified groups was also less than 30 per 
cent, these states with one exception, Montana, being 
in the eastern and central sections of the country. In 
21 states, on the other hand, the increase during the 
decade was, in each group represented, more than 30 
per cent, the majority of these states being in the 
western and southwestern sections of the country.

CITIES AND THEIR SUBURBS. 



In its general tables dealing with the population of 
cities, the Bureau of the Census must necessarily deal 
with political units, or, in other words, with the popula- 
tion contained within the municipal boundaries of each 
city. It is a familiar fact that, in some cases, the 
municipal boundaries give only an inadequate idea of 
the population grouped about one urban center, and 
as regards the large cities in very few cases do these 
boundaries exactly define the urban area. In the 
case of many cities there are suburban districts with 
a dense population outside the city limits, which, 
from many standpoints, are as truly a part of the city 
as the districts which are under the municipal gov- 
ernment. These suburbs are bound to the cities by a 
network of transportation lines. Many of the resi- 
dents in the suburbs have their business or employ- 
ment in the city, and, to a certain extent, persons 
who reside in the city are employed in the suburbs. 

It seems desirable to show the magnitude of each of 
the principal population centers taken as a whole. 
Statistics have, therefore, been compiled for each city in 
the United States with a population of 100,000 inhabit- 
ants or more, which, m addition to the population 
within the city limits, show the population in adjoining 
communities that may be considered as intimately 
associated with the urban center. Two sets of com- 
putations have been made. 

(1) For each city having 100,000 inhabitants or 
more within its municipal boundaries a computation 
has been made of the total population in civil divi- 
sions within 10 mUes of the city boundary. The areas 
thus mapped out may be briefly defined as "cities 
and adjacent territory." 

(2) In the case of each city having within its own 
boundaries 200,000 inhabitants or more, the bureau 
has also mapped out what may be termed a "metro- 
politan district," which besides the city itself includes 
only those sections of the adjacent territory which 
may be considered as urban in character. 

Method of defining districts. — In laying out the 
two classes of districts the population is first deter- 
mined for all civil divisions (that is, cities, towns, 
boroughs, precincts, etc.) which are located within 10 
miles of the city boundaries. Divisions which lie 
partly within and partly without the lO-mUe limit are 
included if either one-half of theii" total population or 
one-half of their total area comes within that limit. 
State boundaries are disregarded, so that in some 
cases the adjacent territory and the metropolitan dis- 
trict lie partly in two states. The area within the 10- 
mile limit thus defined is the "adjacent territory." 
It is, of course, very different from the territory in- 
cluded within a circle drawn with a radius of 10 mUes 
from the center of the city; nor is it the territory in- 
cluded within a line drawn parallel to the city boun- 
dary at an exact distance of 10 miles, because in 
making up the "adjacent territory" no civil divisions 
are subdivided. Hence the outline of the area can 



not foUow geometrical lines, but must conform to the 
boundaries of the political divisions which are on the 
outer edge of the included area. Owing to this fact, 
the boundary of the adjacent territory thus defined 
may vary considerably from point to point in its 
actual distance from the city limits. 

The "metropolitan district," which, as previously 
noted, has, as its nucleus, a city of at least 200,000 
inhabitants, includes the population and area of the 
central city itself and of all minor civil divisions lying 
within the "adjacent territory" except, as a rule, those 
which had a density of population of less than 150 
per square mile. Where the density was less than 
that the division was considered as rural rather than 
urban in character, and as not properly a part of the 
metropolitan district. This limit of density, how- 
ever, was not always rigidly applied. In some in- 
stances for special reasons divisions having a somewhat 
higher density, perhaps as high as 200 per square 
mile, have been omitted, and in a few instances a 
minor civil division has been included within the metro- 
politan district, even though it had a lower density 
than that just stated, because that division was com- 
pletely or almost surrounded by other civil divisions 
having a density which would require them to be 
included. The exception in such cases seems justified 
in order to avoid undue irregularity in the shape of the 
districts, or gaps lying wholly ^vithin then- area. 

It is safe to say that these deviations from the rule 
have had very little effect upon the totals finally 
arrived at and have yielded on the whole as consistent 
and satisfactory results as would have been obtained 
by the application of any rigid rule. In fact, abso- 
lute exactness in applying a density limit is out of the 
question because in most cases the area of the minor 
civil divisions can only be approximated from the 
available maps and data. 

In general, the city with its "adjacent territory," as 
here defined, includes the central city, and in addition 
all cities, towns, villages, or other divisions located 
within 10 miles of the boundary of the central city; 
while the metropolitan district includes, besides the 
central city, only those divisions within the 10-mile 
limit which had a density of population of not less 
than 150 persons per square mile. 

Two special instances of slight exceptions to the 
application of the definition of metropolitan districts 
should be mentioned. Since a strict application of 
the rules for determinmg the metropolitan district of 
Boston would give an area almost identical with the 
area of the "mdustrial district" of Boston, as laid 
out in Census Bulletin 101, Industrial Districts for 
1905, the latter area is for convenience of compari- 
son considered as the metropolitan district. The 
same is true of New York City, except that Nas- 
sau County, which was not included in the industrial . 
district, has been added to the metropolitan district. 
In the case of the other industrial districts shown in 



74 



POPULATION. 



the bulletin mentioned, the areas were so different 
from the metropolitan districts as determined by the 
application of the rule here described, that no attempt 
was made to secure conformity. 

METROPOLITAN DISTRICTS. 

Table 50 shows for 1910 and 1900 the population of 
the 25 metropolitan districts containing individual 
cities of 200,000 or more inhabitants, distinguishing 



the population lying within the city proper from that 
outside the city. The districts are arranged in the 
order of their aggregate population. The table also 
shows the total population of each city with all its 
"adjacent territory." 

It will be noted that two cities of more than 200,000 
inhabitants — Newark and Jersey City — do not appear 
in the table. They are included within the metro- 
politan district of New York.

The importance of the suburbs of great cities ,is con- 
spicuously indicated by the combined statistics for the 
25 metropolitan districts, which appear at the begin- 
ning of the table. The combiaed population of the 
metropolitan districts in 1910 was 22,088,331, of which 
17,099,904 represents the populationof the central cities 
and 4,988,427 that of the suburban areas, the latter 
being equal to nearly 30 per cent of the population 
of the cities proper. The total of 17,099,904 repre- 
sents the population of 28 "central cities," since there 
are three metropolitan districts each of which em- 



braces two cities of such large population that both 
together are treated as constituting the urban center 
of the district. The cities are Minneapolis and St. 
Paul; Kansas City, Kans., and Kansas City, Mo.; and 
San Francisco and Oakland. 

The table shows further that the population of the 
metropolitan districts outside of the central cities 
increased between 1900 and 1910 more rapidly than 
that of the central cities, the increase for the suburban 
districts being 43 per cent and for the central cities 
33.2 per cent. In addition to the strictly urban popu-

POPULATION. 



lation of the 25 metropolitan districts, there were in 
1910 nearly 1,000,000 people residing in territory adja- 
cent to the central cities, but not included within the 
metropolitan districts — that is, in divisions which lie 
whoUy, or in greater part, within 10 miles of the 
boundaries of the central cities, but in which the 
density of population was not sufficient to justify 
calling them strictly urban. The total population of 
the cities in the 25 metropolitan districts plus that 
of all their ' ' adjacent territory" was 23,018,533. This, 
in other words, is the total population which lived in 
1910 either in cities of not less than 200,000 inhabit- 
ants or within approximately 10 nailes of such cities. 
It constituted 25 per cent of the total population of 
the United States. 

It will be noted from Table 50 that there are great 
cUfferences among the several metropohtan districts 
with respect to the proportion which the population 
outside of the central city represents of the total popu- 
lation of the chstrict. These differences are due to the 
fact that some of the large cities have made no annexa- 
tions of territory for many years, while in others exten- 
sive annexations have been' made, so that most of the 
densely populated area within the metropolitan district 
has been added to the city itself. The coluami in the 
table giving the area of the various districts shows that 
there is very little correspondence between the popula- 
tion of the central cities and their area, some cities hav- 
ing several times as many inhabitants per acre as 
others. The difference in policy with regard to the 
extension of municipal boundaries makes it the more 
obviously necessary to exclude thinly settled areas m 
the neighborhood of the cities in calculatmg the true 
metropolitan population; for, in the case of a city 
which has very extensive boundaries, there is also 
necessarily a very large area in civil divisions lying 
within 10 miles of the boundary, and naturally the 
population of many such divisions is likely to be rural 
rather than urban in character. 

The table emphasizes the well-known fact that most 
of the large cities of the country have quite a different 
rank when their suburbs are taken into account from 
that which they hold when only the population living 
within their municipal boundaries is considered. 

CITIES OF 100,000 TO 200,000 INHABITANTS AND 
THEIR ADJACENT TERRITORY. 

Table 51 shows^for each city having from 100,000 to 
200,000 mhabitants, the population within the city 
proper, the population m other civil divisions all or 
more than half of which (in area or population) lie 
within 10 miles of the city boundary, and the combined 
population of the city and such adjacent territory. In 
three cases, cities of 100,000 to 200,000 inhabitants do 
not appear in this list because they are adjacent to 
other cities. This is true of Paterson, N. J., which 
forms part of the New York district; of Cambridge, 
Mass., which forms part of the Boston district; and of 
Oakland, Cal., which forms a part of the San Francisco- 



Oakland district, given in Table 50. It wiU be further 
noted that in three cases there are one or more cities 
within the adjacent territory which approximate in 
population the central city itself. For this reason the 
names of such smaller cities are inserted in connection 
with that of the larger city from whose boundaries the 
distances are determined. 

For reasons already stated, it should not be consid- 
ered that all of the population mcluded in Table 51 
is strictly urban in character or that the figures furnish 
an accurate comparison of the relative importance of 
the several cities as centers of urban population. Nev- 
ertheless, they do indicate the relative importance ap- 
proximately. The combined population in 1910 of the 
19 central cities covered, together with their adjacent 
territory, was 4,002,285, of which 2,438,878 represents 
the population in the 19 principal cities themselves and 
1,563,407 the population in adjacent territory. Itwill 
be noted that the population of the adjacent territory 
increased less rapidly during the decade than that of 
the cities themselves. 

The fact that the population of the adjacent territory 
is larger relatively to that of the central cities in the 
figures given in Table 51 than it is in the case of the 
larger cities given in Table 50 should not be misunder- 
stood. It does not imply that the smaller cities have 
relatively more important suburbs than the larger! It 
is due to two facts, namely, (1 ) that in the combined 
area of the city and its adjacent territory, the smaller 
the size of the city the greater relatively is the share 
of the adjacent area in the total; (2) that in Table 51 
a number of cities are included, principally in. New 
York state and in New England, in whose "adjacent 
territory" there are other cities of large size which can 
not in any true sense be considered suburbs. Troy 
and Schenectady can not be considered as suburbs of 
Albany, but these three cities combined, together with 
other adjacent territory, constitute what may in a 
sense be considered as a single urban community. For 
convenience in interpreting the table in this respect 
there is appended to it a note, giving the name and 
population of each municipality of 5,000 inhabitants 
or more falling within the territory adjacent to each 
of the principal cities listed. To what extent any of 
these outlying cities are to be considered as depending 
upon the central city or constitutmg its suburbs, this 
report does not attempt to discuss. 

Table 52 gives a condensed summary of the statistics 
in Tables 50 and 51. It thus covers 44 districts and 
shows the total population within the 47 cities which 
give their names to these districts, and that in adjacent 
territory within approximately 10 miles of the munic- 
ipal boundaries. Wliile a considerable number, per- 
haps in the neighborhood of 2,000,000, of the popula- 
tion thus included, were living under conditions more 
or less rural, nevertheless the table gives a comprehen- 
sive idea of the importance of the great urban centers 
of the country.

The total population of these districts in 1910 was 
27,020,818, which is equal to 29.4 per cent of the total 
population of the United States. The population of 
the districts has increased a trifle over one-third 
during the decade, 1900-1910, it being noteworthy 
that the percentage of increase in the cities proper 
was almost precisely the same as that in the adjacent 
territory.

POPULATION. 



POPULATION OF IBTDIVIDTJAI CITIES. 



The statistics of population for individual cities 
and other incorporated places having, in 1910, 2,500 
inlaabitants or more are given in this section. The 
population of smaller places appears only in the vari- 
ous state reports contained in Volumes II and III of 
the Reports of the Thirteenth Census. 

The statistics in this section cover only cities in the 
United States exclusive of outlying possessions. Sta- 
tistics regarding the cities and other minor civil divi- 
sions in Alaska, Hawaii, and Porto Rico are presented 
in the special reports for those possessions appearing 
at the end of Volume III. It may be noted at this 
point, however, that the cities and towns of more than 
10,000 inhabitants in 1910 found in these outlying 
possessions are the following: Honolulu, H. I., with 
52,183 uihabitants; San Juan, P. R., with 48,716; 
Ponce, P. R., with 35,005; Mayaguez, P. R., with 
16,563; and Caguas, P. R., with 10,354. 

Table 56 (pp. 80 and 81) shows the population of 
cities having in 1910 over 100,000 mhabitants, with 
number and per cent of decennial increase, alphabeti- 
cally arranged, for each Federal census from 1790 to 
1910, inclusive. 

Table 57 (pp. 82 and 83) shows the population of 
the 50 cities, in the order of their rank, which were 
the largest at each Federal census from 1840 to 1910, 
inclusive. Naturally, a considerable number of cities 
which ranked among the 50 largest at one or more of 
the earlier censuses have ceased to do so at later 
censuses, and several others have been consolidated 
with larger cities. 

Table 58 (pp. 84 to 87) shows the population of cities 
and other incorporated places, and also New England 
towns, having, in 1910, 25,000 inhabitants or more, 
alphabetically arranged by states, for each Federal 
census from 1850 to 1910, inclusive, with the increase 
during each decade from 1890 to 1910. 

Table 59 (pp. 87 to 97) shows the population of 
incorporated places and New England towns having, 
in 1910, 2,500 inhabitants or more, alphabetically 
arranged by states, for the last three Federal censuses, 
namely, those of 1910, 1900, and 1890. 

In using the figures given in these tables, it should 
be remembered that, in some instances, the growth 
of a city or other incorporated place may have been 
due in part to annexation of suburban territory. 
Except in the cases of New York City, Pittsburgh, 
and a few other similar instances of consolidation 
mentioned m footnotes to the tables, no allowance has 
been made for such annexations. 

Cities of 100,000 iniabitants or more. — In 1910 there 
were 50 cities containing a population of 100,000 or 
more. Fourteen of these cities had risen above the 
100,000 limit smce 1900, namely, Albany, N. Y., 
Atlanta, Ga., Birmingham, Ala., Bridgeport, Conn., 
Cambridge, Mass., Dayton, Ohio, Grand Rapids, Mich., 



Lowell, Mass., Nashville, Tenn., Oakland, Cal., Port- 
land, Oreg., Richmond, Va., Seattle, Wash., and 
Spokane, Wash. 

Of these 50 cities, 32 show a greater absolute 
increase of population for the decade 1900-1910 than 
for the preceding decade, and 23 show also a greater 
percentage of increase, whUe 2 show an increase for 
the decade 1900-1910, following a decrease during the 
earlier decade. The comparison of the total popula- 
tion in 1910 and 1900 for each city of 100,000 inhab- 
itants or more in 1910 is made in the diagram below.

1900 



Although the rates of increase since 1900 for indi- 
vidual cities vary widely, ranging from 6.5 per cent in 
Albany, N. Y., to 245.4 per cent in Birmingham, Ala., 
it is rather noteworthy that of the 19 cities of over 
250,000 inhabitants there are 8 which show approxi- 
mately the same rate of iacrease for the last decade,

There were, in 1910, 19 cities having over a quarter of 
a million inhabitants, 4 of which — Newark, Los Angeles, 
Minneapolis, and Jersey City — have entered this 
group since 1900. The rank of the 5 largest cities 
remained the same in 1910 as in 1900. Seven cities 
have advanced in rank since 1900; 3 of these — Cleve- 
land, Detroit, and Milwaukee — are situated on the 
Great Lakes. The greatest advance in rank among 
the cities in question is shown by Los Angeles, which 
ranked fifty-seventh in 1890, thirty-sixth in 1900, and 
seventeenth in 1910. 

Cities of 25,000 iniabitants or more. — As shown 
by Table 49, there were 229 cities having in 1910 a 
population of 25,000 or more, of which, as already 
stated, 50 had a population of 100,000 or more. Of 
the 179 cities having between 25,000 and 100,000 
inhabitants in 1910, there were 108 which had in 1900 
a population of 25,000 to 100,000, 70 which had risen 
above the 25,000 limit since 1900, and 1 which had 
fallen below the 100,000 limit since 1900. 

Of the 225 cities of 25,000 inhabitants or more for 
which comparative figures for the two decades are 
given, 145 showed a greater absolute increase in the 
decade 1900-1910 than in the preceding decade, and 
106 of these showed also a higher percentage of in- 
crease, while 8 showed an increase for the decade 1900- 
1910 following a decrease during the earlier decade. 

As regards rates of mcrease from 1900 to 1910, the 
.cities having at least 25,000 inhabitants are distributed 
as shown m Table 54. About one-third (68^ out of 
229) of the cities of 25,000 inhabitants or more showed 
an increase of over 50 per cent from 1900 to 1910. Of 
the northern cities, about one-fifth (35 out of 167) 
showed such an increase; of the southern cities, about 
two-fifths (19 out of 44); and of the western cities, 



about three-fourths (14 out of IS). (For territory 
included in the North, South, and West, see Table 5.)

POPULATION. 



POPULATION OF COUNTIES OR EQUIVAIENT DIVISIONS. 



The population of states and territories by counties 
or equivalent subdivisions, as shown by the returns of 
the Thirteenth Census, taken as of April 15, 1910, is 
given in this section. The states and territories of the 
United States are, in general, divided into counties, 
but Ln Louisiana the equivalent subdivisions are called 
parishes; and there are also a few cities which are 
independent of any county organization, namely, 
Baltimore in Maryland, St. Louis ia Missouri, and 
most of the cities of Virginia. There are no counties 
in the District of Columbia, the county organization 
having been abolished in 1874. Of the outlying pos- 
sessions enumerated, Hawaii is the only territory which 
has a county organization, but in the case of Alaska 
recorders' districts and in the case of Porto Rico mu- 
nicipal districts are treated as equivalent to county 
areas. 

Table 63 (p. 102) shows the number of counties in 
each state of the United States which have either 
increased or decreased in population since 1900, and 
classifies those which have increased according to the 
rate of increase, while Tables 60 and 61 give the aggre- 
gate area of counties in which population decreased. 
The relative increase in the population of counties, 
from 1900 to 1910, is also shown graphically in a map 
following page 124. 

The states comprising continental United States were 
in 1910 divided into 2,95.3 counties or equivalent sub- 
divisions, but, because of the organization of new coun- 
ties from parts of other counties since 1900, the number 
of areas for which increase or decrease in pojDulation 
is shown in Table 63 is only 2,841. Of these areas, 
2,785 are single counties, and 56 are combinations 
each of two or more counties. In the case of each 
state the total area is embraced within the counties 
and combinations of counties for which population 
increases or decreases are shown. 

The counties which are combined in order to deter- 
mine the rates of increase are given in Table 62. 

Table 64 (pp. 103 to 123) gives the area and popula- 
tion in 1910, by counties, for each state in the United 
States, and, so f.ar as possible, in comparison with 
similar fi.gures for 1900 and 1890, respectively. 

For the state of Oklahoma, formed from the terri- 
tory of Oklahoma and Indian Territory since 1900, 
comparison is made with the figures of the special 
census taken as of July 1, 1907, and also, where pos- 
sible, with those of the censuses of 1900 and 1890. 

Table 65 (pp. 123 and 124) gives the population of 
Alaska in 1910, by recorders' districts, but without com- 
parison for former censuses ; that of Hawaii, by count ies , 
for 1910, 1900, and 1890; and that of Porto Rico, by 
municipal districts, in 1910, in comparison with simi- 
lar figures derived from the special census taken in 
1899 under the direction of the War Department. 



When counties have been organized or have under- 
gone changes in boundaries during the 20 years from 
1890 to 1910 an explanatory statement is made in 
the notes which immediately follow Table 65. 

For the United States as a whole, as shown in Table 
63, the population decreased in the decade 1900-1910 
in 769 counties, or combinations of counties, represent- 
ing 27.1 per cent of the entire number considered, 
while in 2,072 counties, or 72.9 per cent, it increased. 
In 327 counties, or 11.5 per cent of the entire number 
considered, the increase in population since 1900 was 
less than 5 per cent; in 561, or 19.7 per cent, it was 
from 5 to 15 per cent; in 373, or 13.1 per cent, it was 
from 15 to 25 per cent; in 364, or 12.8 per cent, it was 
from 25 to 50 per cent; and in 447, or 15.7 per cent, it 
was 50 per cent or more. 

The 769 counties or combinations of counties in 
which the population decreased during the decade 
1900-1910 had an aggregate area of 472,462 square 
miles, representing 15.9 per cent, or nearly one-sixth, 
of the total land area of the country. The extent of 
the area of decreasing population and the geographical 
distribution of the counties composmg it are of sig- 
nificance when taken in conjunction with the high 
rates of population growth during the decade in 
urban communities generally, and in the rural dis- 
tricts of certain sections of the country. 

Table 60 shows that the proportion which the area 
of decreasing population formed of the total area in 
1910 was greatest in the North, where nearly one- 
third of the total area (30.4 per cent) was embraced 
within the counties or combinations of counties 
which had decreased in population since 1900, and 
was least in the West, for which the corresponding 
percentage was 5.

The North, which embraces 30.9 per cent of the total 
land area of the country, embraced, in 1910, 59 per cent 
of the total area of the counties or combinations of 
counties in which the population decreased during the 
decade 1900-1910. The South embraced very nearly 
the same proportion of the total area as of the area of 
decreasing population, the percentages being 29.5 and 
28.4, respectively, while the West, which embraces 39.6 
per cent of the total area of the country, embraced 
in 1910 only 12.6 per cent of the area of decreasing 
population. 

Table 61 shows for each division and state the 
aggregate area of the counties or combinations of 



counties in which the population decreased during 
the decade 1900-1910, together with the percentage 
which this aggregate forms of the total area of the 
division or state. 

In Iowa the counties within which the population 
decreased between 1900 and 1910 embraced 38,929 
square miles; or 70 per cent of the total land area 
of the state; in Missouri such counties embraced 
42,937 square mUes, or 62.5 per cent of the total 
area. The corresponding percentage for Indiana is 
59.7; for lUinois, 44.7; and for Ohio, 43.5. In ten 
other states the proportion exceeded one-fourth of 
the total area.
